Well, I am over the first hurdle pre surgery. I had CT
scans post treatment today and everything looks good! No signs of cancer
spreading! My oncologist was very happy for me! Can't tell if the tumor is all
gone without a PET scan so I will have to wait till surgery to know that.
Talked to my surgeon and got a lot of information concerning my surgery. I will
have two surgeries, one is outpatient, the second one is inpatient. I was informed that I will have chest tubes which
took me by surprise. I have experience with those as Jeff had them with his
surgery, so I am not real excited about that, but you do what you have to do. I
think I may have down played this surgery a little bit so now I need to prepare
myself for a pretty serious procedure.
God is faithful and I trust Him in this! I need to keep
gaining weight to cushion what I will lose after surgery. I am eating well and
moving around quite a bit so just need to keep going in that direction!
I can't
tell you how much your prayers and well wishes mean to me! You all have loved
on me with intensity and I am forever grateful! I love my Jesus and am so
thankful for His care and love He has poured out on me! So many suffering with
this disease!
Until surgery I am going to enjoy life to the fullest!
Much Love,
Gigi
