We got back the pathology report today. The surgeon spent maybe 2 minutes in the room, and wasn't very helpful in explaining the results. We were told that 18 out of 25 nodes that were taken were malignant and that they would have to be aggressive with treatments which would include chemotherapy. But that was about all he had to say. Bonnie and Kevin were able to get copies of several reports and a lot of pamphlets of information from a "case manager" that came to the room today. We are still trying to figure out what it all means.
Grandpa and Grandma Rawlings came today along with Aunt Karla, they brought a beautiful arrangement of flowers from the Rawlings family. Later tonight we had a surprise visit from Jeff and Becky Hone who stayed for a while and chatted, it was really nice to get our mind off of things for a while. The Hone's brought a very nice planter of yellow tulips that will be enjoyed for a long time.
I am staying at the hospital for the next 2 days with Bonnie and will post more tommorrow.
Hopefully we will all be able to get some sleep tonight.
