Surgery Date Surprise...

Hi all
Yesterday we had our surgery date with Imogen's surgeon, Mr Gallow. After an hour of waiting we were very happy to be told that Immie will be having her surgery on Monday...yeap that's 22nd of September. While we were there the surgeon rang his assistant and cancelled all his Monday morning patients. We were shocked that he did this for our girl, though thankful that Immies treatment was getting full priority. We are also thankfully that our oncologist Dr Phillips, rang Mr Gallow once again, to explain the importance of the fact that Immie needed surgery ASAP.
Immie has to go in Saturday morning to get her blood cross matched for any transfusions she needs to have done during the operation. Then I am unsure when we will be back in there, either Sunday night or early Monday morning.
Please send us lots of positive thoughts that Mr Gallow and team can get as much of the leisions as possible, and not do any possible damage to the kidney or urethra.
Cheers
Lots of Love

P.S. Guess what there are only 14 sleeps to our big boy turns double digits - 10, wow, I know I know...but I just have to say it I can't believe he is going to be 10....incredible
