Mama

Mama had her surgery on Monday. It was a very long day for all of us. My in-laws were gracious enough to let Caleb spend the night so I wouldn't have to worry about getting him ready that morning. She had to be at MD Anderson at 7:45am. She was originally told that the surgery would begin 1-1.5 hours after she arrived. Well, it was 12:30 when the surgery began. We were able to see her in recovery later that afternoon. She was eating ice chips when I went back. During that time she ate a package of cheese crackers and a diet coke. She never drinks an entire diet coke, but that day she did. She was discharged around 5pm. We were home about 6pm. She is tolerating the pain. The Dr. is hoping she got all of the cancer, but will have to check the margins. If the xray comes back positive, she will have to have a mastectomy in about a month. We are hoping everything was taken care of on Monday. Please keep her in your prayers.
