Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for all your prayers! Everything went really well with my second surgery. The tests they did looked good, but just like last time, we won’t know until next week at our follow up. I think I came out of anesthesia 100x better this time than last time which is a HUGE answer to prayers!! I had one little nauseous moment and the ceiling lights were bouncing around on the ceiling but once I took the nausea patch off (like 30 minutes later) I was feeling a lot better. I was able to go home last night!! I even felt good enough to stop at Culver’s for supper on the way home! 😃
A little side note: I ended up having to take another covid test… 😬🤣🤪 My nurse had to give it to me. (At least I didn’t have to make a special trip in for it this time.) She was great about it and I loved her sense of humor! Actually everyone at Marshfield have been great to work with! We have been so happy with my care there!
I was a little more sore coming home this time. Thankfully the Tylenol and Ibuprofen are kicking in now! This time the pain is more to the side/under my arm where they ended up taking some more tissue. When I first came home I couldn’t move my arm without it feeling like I had a broken rib. Maybe not that bad, dad was telling me his broken rib killed him… OR maybe I’m just tougher than him! 😉🤣🙂
** I forgot to mention!! My drainage tube came out during surgery too!!!! 😃😃😃 That was getting so uncomfortable and we thought I’d have to deal with it for another week after surgery but I don’t!!! YAY! 😃
Praise the Lord! Thanks so much for the updates Cassie, they really do help. You sound like you’re doing great under the circumstances and Aaron looks like he’s hanging tough too. More prayers coming your way!
Thank you Kim! Yeah, doing pretty good! I was told no chores for 6 weeks… we’ll see how well I can listen…
Glad to here surgery went better this go around. Much continued prayers for more answers on your follow up appointment next week!
Thank you Julie! ❤️
Cassie, I am so happy your second surgery went well. My small group, Praise and Prayer women’s group, and women’s Bible Study group are all praying for you. Thank you for sharing prayer requests, so we can pray specifically for your needs. You are being lifted up in prayer before the Lord as you await test results. Blessings!
Thank you Bernita! What a blessing to have so many people praying for me! I really appreciate all of the prayers and support! ❤️
Dear Cassie. I’m so glad things went well. How can we best help besides prayers? Would your kids like help with their chores? Would you enjoy a casserole? How is school going? What would best help? I praise God that things went so well on the second time around. Your attitude needs to help. the Lord will take you each step of the way forward. What does chemo and/or radiation look like? Maybe this depends on results before a plan is made.
In Jesus’ love,
Josie
Thank you for asking Josie! Right now things are going pretty good. My parents are here through Friday to help with daily stuff. I still have a few freezer meals and gift cards left so I think we’re ok on meals for the time being!
I don’t know what chemo or radiation will look like yet. I think we’ll find out more about that at my follow up appt next week. I’ll be sure to keep everyone updated once we know more.
Thanking Jesus for his care and protection of you. Love His goodness and all of you. <3
