Hi All!

Just wanted to write a short post that my surgery was Wednesday and I
am now back home in Cookeville!  We got home around 4:30 Saturday.  I
wasn't sure I was going to get to come home because my white count was
still a little elevated, but here I am!  It is SO nice to be home!

Surgery went well but took a little longer than expected (started at
9:45 and ended around 5:30) but Dr. Dyer was able to repair my hernia
and remove a tumor on my stomach that we didn't even know was there.
Although the path report wasn't back yet, Dr. Dyer said he was sure it
was a benign tumor.

I go Tuesday to get the drains out. That will make things much easier!

Since I have been home it sounds like Tony the Tiger has moved into my
abdominal cavity!  The roaring and GRRRRRRRing woke me up several
times last night! LOL!  I knew that my pouch would make some noise but
goodness gracious - such a racket!!!

Well - time to get some more fluids in!  Hope everyone is doing well.

Love to all and Merry Christmas!
