Overdue Update

Sorry for the gap in posts. I was in Chicago most of this week for work and Kristine is still on the mend. She continues to do very well, however she is really eager to get her drains out. They have now officially become annoying, and are keeping her from being more active. We head to the doctor on Tuesday for her post-op check up and Kristine hopes the drains will come out at that time. We should also learn more about the course of treatment at that appointment. It's possible her chemo could begin as early as next week.

Good news came last week with the results of the pathology from Kristine's surgery. Seven lymph nodes were removed and only two tested positive for cancer. All the tests on tissue samples from around the surgical area came back negative, so we're really happy that no other indications of cancer were found anywhere.

So all-in-all Kristine is doing well, just anxious to speed up the recovery and get out of the house more often. We'll do a post later this week after her appointment.

Thanks all!
