Stewart is gone!! Surgery went well. Docs were able to remove tumor without taking any of the kidney because it was "laying" on the back of the kidney, they told me they got it all, so I hope they are right. I have 6 incisions, one is giving me grief that is by my hip bone but taking pain meds is helping. Getting stronger every day. I should know what pathology is early this next week.

    Toni,

     

     

    Hopefully the initiation didn't go any worse than expected.

    Glad the operation is over

    Glad the operation is over and now in your past! Makes us rethink our lives and purpose a bit yes?

     

    I too had 6 incisions via robatic surgery. I am soo glad for this type of surgery as the healing process is much easier and swifter. I used a lumbar wrap around my lower abdomen to support that wounded area and stuck a rectangular dry ice device inside of it for the pain in the larger wound, near the hip. The ice helped more swiftly than the pain meds for me.

    Continue good healing to you.. don't rush life now~
