I forgot to up-date last week. Mom was released after only 6 days in
the hospital. She continues to get her strength back each day. She had
her post-op appointment last Friday and he says she is doing good. The
surgeon removed the one stitch where the drain tube was and that made
a world of difference as it was catching on her jammies every time she
moved.
Her voice has been a little raspy but that is improving as well. The doc
said some people have it for a few days and some it lasts longer. I think
she sounds normal now and looks just fab!
She will be seeing her oncologist (cancer doc) this week and we will
find out what the pathology found from the lobe they removed. She
has one microscopic spot left on the lymph node that may require
chemo but the surgeon said it is so tiny and not to worry about it.
Apparently there is a cancer treatment that is a shot she may be
able to get for that little spot. I hate to see her have to go through chemo.
But the oncologist is the captain of this ship and she will do what ever
he recommends.
