recovering nicely

Sorry I have not been updated this as much lately. =( I went back to work today then stayed at the hospital for a while. Mom is still doing great! She got her NG tube taken out so that made all the difference in the world! They took out her epidural =( but gave her a PCA pump instead, so that should take care of most of the pain. She's getting well enough to where I think she likes when all the family goes to work so she can have some alone time. I can imagine that dad and I are annoying her b/c we are constantly asking her if she's ok or if she needs anything, haha. We did find out that she had some cancer cells in 3 of the 10 lymph nodes they took out....this only means she will definitely need chemo. We figured she probbaly would, so we were pretty prepared. Dr. King didn't seem to be too worried as long as she undergo's chemo, which she will be starting in about 2 months. Apparently this particular chemo drug doesn't have as many side effects as most of them. This is good so she can dance all night at the wedding ;) We are just praying that she continues to heal quickly so she can get back to her normal self. Many of you have asked about Memaw (mom's mother)...she doesn't really know whats going on, but we think it's better that way. That would be the one thing she remembers forever ;) Thank you again for the prayers...please keep them coming! Everyone has been so faithful to pray for her, and God is truly listening. We are all praying that HIS will be done...and it's amazing that this IS his will! He is the Master Healer!
