Whoa, this will be a fast diary to say THANK YOU to all MTers for prayers, good thoughts and wishes for Treigh and our family.
I am finally able to get on this site again. I was so frustrated not to be able to respond or see this site.
Thank you Elisa for your sweet post up for Treigh and our family! She is scheduled for surgery February 7th early (sometime between 7am and 9am) in the morning. The surgery is approximately 12-14 hours. She won't know the exact time until tomorrow night.
I am leaving for LA tomorrow and will return in about a week or so.
So, I'm calling all MTers to send your positive thoughts for Treigh's return to good health and speedy recovery on Wednesday, early a.m. Pacific Standard Time.
If ever there was a powerful force of nature, it is the power of MOTHERS ( well all women, actually ). Let's use it.
Thank you thank you thank you.
*****************************************
Treigh's surgery was long and arduous but better than expected in many outcomes. She has no cancer in her soft tissue and other results are due in 5-7 days for bone/tumor results; doctors anticipate that her work and chemo have eradicated the cancer in her body. There were many aspects of the surgery that ended well for Treigh including less taken of vital nerves/teeth, etc. Her bone from her leg which is now grafted in her jaw seems to be doing well one and a half days post-op. She actually walked today with help. Her surgery was Wed/today is Friday.
We are all over the moon for her and with her, but know she has a long hard recovery ahead of her and is feeling vulnerable, exhausted and challenged. I so appreciate all prayers, good wishes, positive energy sent through the mothertalker channels!
GOOD WORK all the way around. I'm still in LA; back next week. Loving wishes with gratitude to all.
