    Good to Hear!
    I had no complications. And recall nothing particularly special. They will watch her closely for several days. Pain management is a bit of an issue with such a large incision. Mine healed well. 65% leaves her lots of "hepatic reserve" as they call it. I was longer recovering after my colon resection.

    I hope the next days go well.

    Oh, dear
    Melody,

    I'm so sorry about your mom's stroke. Both of my parents have had them (unrelated to cancer), and I know it's scary business. But both are fine now!

    I'll be praying for your mom.

    *hugs*
