Monday Night

It's been a long day! After many tests, cancelled tests, more tests scheduled for the next several days........Tim's surgery is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. WOW!
I don't know what made the last minute change - I imagine the surgeon had an opening.
They have checked every possible place on Tim's body - inside and out! Due to the cancer and chemo, his bone marrow is soft and his platlettes and red blood is low. They will be boosting that during and after surgery. A little while ago, they took Tim for a brain scan. The hospital had found an exta one and they were trying to locate the owner! Since Tim has been so dopey, they figured he had lost his or didn't have one. Actually, they were looking for pockets of infection - and he is fine!
Overall, Tim seems a 100% improved from Friday when we left home. He has energy - he has been up and down the hall, he's talking everyone's head off, he's hungry - and eating everything he can fine. He has raided the patient fridge several times this evening. He has color. Several of the nurses have questioned the need for surgery! He does need it - quickly - but this turn around is amazing. I hope he comes out of surgery feeling this good - obviously within in time!
It's hard to face the upcoming rehab - knowing what he will have to go through! Hopefully, by the first of May he will be ready to fish and all the great things spring lets you do! I'm hoping for a better vacation this "cruise line!"
More tomorrow evening after surgery! It will be a long afternoon!
