Surgery Update

Rate this Entry
Well, Tom had his surgery today, and things seem to have gone OK. The growths are not what they thought they were, so we are waiting on the pathology. We should, hopefully, know what they are tomorrow. Everything took longer than planned, so I was pretty anxious this afternoon. He was due in at 1 p.m. and they said it should only take an hour or so. Two hours later, and I was still waiting for a phone call to say that he was finished. By the time Tom finally called, I was pacing my house with worry.

Anyway, they don't know what they growths were, and there are two days off work for recovery. The bad part is that he must go into work on Friday night, and we were hoping to have that last night together. It doesn't seem it will be the case, but we still were hoping. All there is to do now is wait on what the doctors say the cysts were. That should be tomorrow's news. That's about all for now.

Take Care,
Meg

    Was hoping for news of a more pleasing sort. On the other hand one day tirn around from a military hospital lab. That's different! Hope all goes well for you. Would have been nice if doctor gave him an excusal from duty to cover Friday. Supervisors violate those at peril of their careers.

    Thank you all for your well wishes. I hope that it will only take a day like the doctor said. Then maybe I can put this minor nightmare to rest.
