Surgery Day

Cassandra is out of surgery and doing well. After a long day she arrived into her room at around 4:00 PM. The surgeon said everything went well. He removed the tumor on her lung that had appeared on her earlier PET scans as well as two other spots that did not show.

As of right now we dont know what the other two spots means for the future. We are waiting on results back from pathology to identify what the spots were because there is a chance they were not cancer. So for right now its a waiting game to determine how we move forward.

Cassandra and I both want to thank everyone for their help today. We are both very lucky to have families willing to drop everything and help us. Over the past week we have had parents and grandparents travel near and far to be with us during long waiting periods, had aunts that watched our son during appointments, brothers that helped with yard work, and sisters that spend a lot of time in their cars getting coconut M&Ms and saying hello. We couldnt ask for a better family to help us through the difficult time.

I also want to think everyone at PAM transport for sending messages of encouragement and letting me know they were thinking of us.

Thank you everyone,
Eric
