So far so good.

A very early day for Trela started at 5:30 today. Check in was at 6 with surgery starting at 8:00 AM. 10 and 1/2 hours later she was finished and rolled into recovery, and just before 10pm, into her room. Unlike last time, she didn't look as if someone had punched her in the face. (last time one of the tubes had pressed her lip against the sharp portion of her teeth and she had a very swollen lip) and her foot didn't hurt.

Neither of the surgeons reported any complications, and based on what could be seen in the OR pathology, there was no sign of angiosarcoma anywhere, even right next to where the most recent recurrence was. Yea!

Trela and I had said Monday morning that we just needed to get through the next 3 days with no bad news. So far, so good.

Carpe Diem.
