Melontwist's Revision
I'll let her or her hubby give more detail, but the short version of the story is that she has had a series of complications since then. Surgery was around 11/18, and I think she's only been home for a total of 3-4 days since then. Surgery itself seemed to go well, but she's picked up a series of infections, had some difficulty swallowing (even saliva), and has had some bad reactions to the pain meds they've put her on. At this point things seem to be getting somewhat better (it sounds like she may get to go back home in the next day or two), but I don't know a lot of the details. In any event, she's certainly had a less than ideal recovery, and could use our continued thoughts and prayers.
