Bone Biopsy 2

I checked into the Methodist Hospital, on Thursday, March 5th, around 10:30 in the morning. Dr Davis made room for me on his schedule so I was the last surgery of the day, “1:30 to follow.” But it wasn’t too late, they took me into the ‘OR’ around 2:30. As I told you all on my last entry, I was going to do this out-patient…….OK, I have NO idea who would do a bone biopsy as an out-patient? I stayed the night. The choice was go home with pills, or stay overnight and get injections…well that was a no-brainer! AJ was exhausted and went home around 10 pm. Martha, came and stayed the night with me. God bless her! She kept me on the schedule for my pain meds, and kept me on “ice chips.”

Dr. Davis felt like the surgery went well; 3 inches of a rib bone and most of the mass taken out. It should be plenty to get a conclusive diagnosis. Oh, and by the way, “she will feel like she has been beaten”….well it’s been a while since I was beaten (haha!)…..and I guess I forgot~But it hurts!

It was a rough day today, but I am home now posting to the blog…walking slowly around the house~smelling Keli’s pecan pies baking. Thank you all for calling, your cards, and emails. So now we wait again, approximately 5 days to get the results.

Exodus 14:14 God will fight for you, all you have to do is be still.
