Time to go home

Sarah is doing so well that we get to go home very soon! Last night was a little difficult, she was finally able to get the pain under control and be steady at a 4/10. The nausea finally subsided and she was able to get up and move just a little bit. The night was definitely sleepless since the nursing staff had to come in frequently to check vitals, give mess and help Sarah use the restroom! So combined we got about 49 minutes of sleep....lol!  The nursing staff here at SkyRidge have been absolutely wonderful and very helpful!

Dr. Rhee came in this morning around 6:30 and checked the margins of the sutures and the healing is going well!!!  He was really impressed with her progress and how well she is doing.  He did comment that her healing and quick recovery is really impressive. Apparently Sarah is superwoman!! Her general surgeon Dr. Moore came in about 9:30 and she also commented on how well things are healing and how great she looks!  So both surgeons have the same opinion of her recovery currently and how well things are progressing which means things are on the right track.

We should be getting the results of the pathology from the lymph nodes by Friday so hopefully it's only isolated to just that 1....positive thoughts and prayers unite! Send them our way!!

We plan on going home around 2pm, she just got up and had a quick walk around the floor and finished her lunch....Sarah is so amazing and strong! I will attach a picture of her up and around on FB in her pink robe since my phone won't allow it Google Blogger...

Overall things are going great....ready to go home and allow the kids to be around her and Tank to see his mom....that crazy dog! It will be good for her healing and help for a speedy recovery....something tells me there is no slowing Sarah down! She's determined to get on with her life and not let any of this hold her back! She is something to ADMIRE, she's defienitly my hero!

Hey cancer.....You messed with the wrong bitch!
