She's in Recovery...

Liz's surgeon just came out to tell us that her surgery is complete and everything went well. He said everything looked normal, which is great news. Plus, he even gave us a picture of her ovaries and uterus (maybe Liz will even let us scan it and post it on the blog later)! All of that is now on its way to Pathology to determine if the cancer spread there as well.

She should be heading to her room in a few hours. If she is awake enough later today, we will do another post.

Thanks for all the prayers and positive energy everyone keeps sending our way. We wouldn't have been able to get through this without all of you.

Hello. I'm a friend and co-worker of Cathy (Nona) and I wanted you to know that you've been in my thoughts and prayer. My Mom had a bilateral mastectomy at age 44. It definitely sucked. You seem like a wonderful, strong person, Liz - like your Mom. I am wishing you hope and healing rest.

Keep Calm and Carry On.
Peace+

I would like to submit that this morning Liz wanted something out of her satchel so she walked over there, squatted down, rummaged around, and got back up unaided. Just as if she hadn't been in surg less than 24 hours before.

Way to go Liz! You are awesome!
