Good Thing My Wife is so Tough...

Prayers for your wife and family... Positive vibes on the way as well.

definitely my hopes and prayers keep positive she needs you bro.

Parallel

Mrs Parallel is scheduled for surgery on March 25. There's a fair chance the surgery can be done laparoscopic and robot-assisted, but the surgeon will make that call during the procedure. There is a 75% chance that she will NOT need radiation therapy (assuming the cancer hasn't spread). All of the pre-op stuff has been done today; exam by the gynecologic oncologist, blood work, EKG and chest xrays.

To give you an idea of her attitude, she posted the following on her FB page:

Mrs. Parallel — "on the positive side the doctor said I need to wear moo moos after the surgery, so I may have to become old officially now."


To which I replied — "The doctor said when you're RECOVERING moo moos are a good option. That doesn't give you carte blanche to run around like the people of Walmart." )

That attitude and the Lord's help will see you guys through!  Keep it up and keep it light!

I don't know your circumstances, but if you need lodging while getting treatment, look for an American Cancer Society Hope Lodge.  Wonderful support.

As a fellow survivor, good luck.

Parallel

Thanks for the tip Doc. We've sprung for a private room so that I can be with her to help take care of her.

I will be praying for you and for a full, speedy recovery for your wife.

Haven't signed on in quite awhile and almost forgot my password in the meantime - but wanted to wish you the best of luck Parallel.  By the sounds of it she's a fighter and should pull through no problem.

make sure to keep us all posted.  Us Egghead's gotta stick together.
