Sounds like a good X mas present with potentially no cancer. Glad all went well.
Christmas Kathy Update
- Thread starter Narragansett
- Start date
First off, thanks for all the thoughts and prayers.
Secondly, Merry Christmas to all
Ok, Special K had her surgery yesterday and it was successful. A 3 hour operation. She will be in the hospital for a week. She had a whipple procedure. Too detailed to explain but it is a major operation. It would have been much easier to see her intestine to the back of her tongue.
They found a small mass in the bile duct which will be tested along with other parts. She had a liver infection which they cleaned up. Now we wait for biopsy results, but it is possible that there is no cancer.
Enjoy the day!
Praying for her to have an easy full recovery.

Waiting on biopsy results can be stressful. I'm praying for the correct answer to the question.
Glad to hear it went well. Hope she recovers quickly
Prayers from my corner will continue.
Apologize. Must have failed to pay attention. Very thankful the surgery went well for Kathy. Will be praying for a good report on the test and for her full recovery. Sincerely. bruce.

I am often a contrarian on some issues, but unlike some, I am a major fan of modern medicine because I am alive and reasonably functional with all the fun baggage I have. As I have told some of my providers, I don't have to enjoy this stuff, but I do have to appreciate it.
Prayers continue for you both and those that care for her through this... Merry Christmas

Congratulations on a successful procedure.
I had that surgery in May '23. Took a little while to heal up, and there's medication needed to digest (at least in my case), but I tell everyone that I'm grateful to be here to gripe about it.
Hopefully, the remainder of Special K's pancreas will continue to function correctly, and if so, it's all bonus from this point on.
Best to you both!

Stated her name and yours in prayers last night. They will continue.
