Thinking about you! Any updates from anyone?
I can't call this an update, as we didn't go in with the family once the surgery was complete. They took Steelfingers into surgery at around 8:00 am and said that surgery would be about 5 to 7 hours. We (wife and I) sat around and visited with SF's family from about 9:00 on. They "buzzed" his wife once for an update of what was going on. Then around 10:15 or so, she was "buzzed" again. This time it was for the family to meet with the doctors.
I'm concerned because with it only being about 2 1/2 hours instead of 5 hours, I don't know if they just had great success or if they found more cancer. I've known of circumstances where surgeons just closed the patient up because the cancer has spread too much.
We will be going back to visit either today or tomorrow, so I hope to find out then. Discussion among the family before the docs finished included what the prospect would be with a person just having one lung, so hopefully, it is good news. At least, I'm praying for good news.
