Hi All,
Sorry for the delay in this update. It was a long, hard day at the hospital which was reflected in Dr. T's description of the surgery. Steven ended up having cancer locations that were more difficult to remove and resulted in some repair work to tissues in the abdomen. Dr. T said he completed about 20 surgeries on Steven during the one operation. He also stated that he believes that he got all the cancer removed but Steven will have some changes to his lifestyle but nothing that can't be dealt with.
We were finally able to see Steven at 9pm. He is sedated and on a respirator and will stay that way at least throughout the night.
Love Tracy and Family
Hugs to all of you. It was a long hard day for you. Pray they got it all and you and your little family can start to live your life as a healthy happy family. May thoughts are with all of you. Try to get some rest and take care of yourself. You will need your strength in the days ahead. Tons of love and lots of Claude hugs!! <3

Tracy, so glad to hear its done and it went well. We are thinking about you both. Take care over the next 24-48hrs, from what my husband tells me as he was my caregiver, he'll be pretty out of it but a lot of those tubes start coming out soon.

Glad all went well, Jennifer updated me this morning
ReplyDeleteI am sorry that he had to do more cutting than expected but I am happy to hear he thinks he has removed the awful disease! This will be a long road of recovery for Steve and I am sure it will be very difficult journey for both of you. It will be all worth it to see your little James grow up together. I so appreciate the updates when I know you must be so exhausted.
