Surgery is done!

Lana went in for surgery today at 9am and got home at about 5:30pm.

I saw her this evening and she looked great!!

The surgery went well and they'll get the pathology report back in a few days.

She said the pre-op was way worse than the actual surgery. 

Lots of poking, prodding, and squishing to locate the exact spot of the tumor.

But once they put her under, it was all good. :)

After the surgery, they put in a drain to drain out fluid and that will stay in for a week or so.

TT gets to help with changing that out and monitoring the fluid.  He's a good home nurse. ;)

Thank you again for your prayers and concern!  I know that my mom sure feels all the love that comes from each one of you!!

Good news...no more chemo!!!

Yesterday was Lana's appointment with her doctor to find out the game-plan.

She was BEYOND THRILLED to find out that she is done with chemo!!  Can I get a hallelujah?!

Best news ever.  She was doing the happy dance all day long.

So here's the plan:

*Surgery on the 19th (partial mastectomy)

*Drain for a week

*2-3 weeks after surgery she'll get radiation everyday for 6 weeks

Which means, ladies and gentleman, that she could be completely done with all cancer treatments by the end of July!!  It's nice to have the end in sight.  I would say that it's the light at the end of the tunnel, but the light has actually been with her through the whole tunnel.  We are so blessed and so thankful.  We sure love you mama.  

This is Lana giving two thumbs up to the great news!!
