Thank you all so much for taking your time to give Mae Lyne and I encouragement, well wishes, and prayer support.
Other than her usual aches and pains and considering she has been in a bed for five days, she is doing well. She did walk a little bit yesterday and she walked to the shower to take a sponge bath. She still has the pic lines inserted as well as the catheter. She is able to eat soft foods; but her throat is still a little on the raw side from the forcing of that breathing tube in when her trachea had swollen shut.
We did get the word today that was a big disappointment to her. They are not going to release her from the hospital prior to her cancer surgery. She had wanted to come home for a couple of days and regroup; but that isn't going to happen. She will be transported from the hospital she is now in to the campus in Orlando where the surgery will take place. I sort of figured that was how it would shake out; but she was counting on a couple a days at home.
I am staying at the hospital with her and I am not online very much. Our plans were to spend the Labor Day weekend together and that is exactly what I intend to do even if it is in a hospital. I come home a couple of times a day to check on my dad and see if he needs anything. I am looking so forward to getting this cancer surgery over with and getting her home. That is probably two weeks away from happening. Surgery is scheduled for Thursday morning, Sep 9th.
Thank you all again for caring.
