Hi allWell super amazing Immie and me are back home, yeap operation was only on Monday. The surgeon was amazing, removed all the visible leisions (had a good look around to ensure there were no more visible )and then stitched her left ovary over next to the right, so when she does radiation her left ovary won't be blasted (WOW).
The op took about 3 and half hours as long as last year's, but the surgeon wanted to have a good look and some of the leisions were located in tricky places. Immie recovered with an epidural (with catherter), panadol, and lots of rice bubbles.
On Tuesday night she really pick up, and would not stop chatting (lol). They turned the epidural off at lunchtime yesterday (Wednesday) and Immie handled the pain. Then yesterday afternoon in one shoot, they removed the catheter, cannula (drip), epidural and did the broviac (main line) dressing.
Came home, not being able to walk very well, today she is walking, bending (gingerly) and giggling on pain stop. Back to the hospital the afternoon for dental checkup. Then next week will involve getting the base lines for her hearing, cardio (heart), liver function and bloods, with the view of beginning mega therapy (big chemo) on the 6th of October.
AMAZING!!!, we finally have a date, this will allow us to plan our life a little better over the next month and on. This is also means we will all be together at home for Kody's 10th Birthday and possibly also Jason's 30th on the 12th of October (even if it means we are in hospital we will now know where we are).
All your thoughts and support make a huge difference
