Today Shelley went back to Dr. Johnson’s office and had her drain tubes removed. Over the past several days the drain tubes have been bugging her. She has not been sleeping that well over the last several nights, due to the drain tubes. Several days ago she had stopped taking her pain medicine and is doing well with the pain.
Shelley also received a telephone call from Dr. Heck’s office with the results from the pathology test. She was told that the tumor was 1cm, the margins were negative and the 2 lymph nodes that were removed were also negative.
Once again she has to wait, due to Dr. Heck going out of town for the weekend, and when he returns on Monday we will find out what stage she is and what the next step is going to be.
Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers, the power of prayer is awesome. I still ask that you keep her in your prayers. What a happy day!
