Hi Everyone,
It's Patty again, with good news. Warren called just before 6 p.m. to say that DonnaLee is now out of surgery and everything went extremely well!
Literally just as Warren, Taryn and Ian had returned to the hospital's waiting room, DonnaLee's three surgeons came in to tell them that the surgery was finished and that it had been "picture perfect." The surgeons are confident that they got the tumor. Some microscopic cancer cells may remain, but she will undergo radiation to take care of them, which DonnaLee and Warren had expected.
DonnaLee is now on her way to recovery and Warren, Taryn and Ian will get to see her at about 6:30 for a few minutes, though she won't be conscious. After that, they'll head home for the night. The surgeons said DonnaLee will start to wake around 6 a.m. tomorrow, but she won't really be conscious until about 8 a.m. or so. She will most likely be in intensive care until Thursday. On Thursday, they expect to move her to a room.
I will post another update tomorrow.
I'm sure we'll all rest easier tonight knowing DonnaLee is now on the road to recovery.
Sweet dreams.
