Elaine's Surgery

The surgeon took out another very large mass from her abdomen. It was like the one she had removed in February. The doctor was "amazed" that it had grown back so quickly. He's hoping to find a chemo treatment that will be more effective. Keep her in your prayers as she recovers from this operation and they try to find a good treatment for her.

We just visited Grandmama in ICU. She is mentally sharp, but groggy from pain medication. Her vitals are good and she is doing as well as can be expected. Her cardiologist came in while we were there and said that he couldn't speak for her surgeon, but thought that considering her age and the serious nature of her surgery that she would be in ICU at least another day.

She is still in ICU - could possibly come out this afternoon. They are not happy with her kidney output yet. She is groggy from medication, but knows us and answers questions sensibly. Please pray for her recovery.
