    surgery time estimate
    Hi Tina,

    When I had my liver resection I was also given a time estimate of 6-7 hours...but since my body is small with no body fat to cut through and make seeing organs more difficult, my surgery was less than 3 hours. My family was very surprised when I was wheeled out hours earlier than expected :)

    I hope all goes perfectly for Jorge <3

    Oh Tina
    I am so excited for you both. I know going into surgery is scary, (at least it was for me)but soooo worth it to have those tumors cut out.
    I am so there with you both in spirit. I hope you both can get some rest (sleep might not come easily)and hugs to you both.

    Stay strong. Liver resection is the goal all of us wish for and is Jorge's best shot at knocking this down.

    Take care - Tina
