Good morning everyone
We are enjoying your pictures and posts. Dannys doctors have decided that instead of doing more chemo-even a different kind- is not going to be as beneficial as surgery. We went to UVA on Thursday and had pre op and will have a r. Lung wedge resection on December 5th. We don't know the time and won't know til the day before. The surgeon is going to try and do it through a scope but he did say given the location of the tumor and dannys size chances are he will have to make an in incision. Possibly a 4 day stay in the hospital but that will depend on the type of surgery as well. He had a chest xray and his doc called last night and said his pneumonia seems to be clearing out. They told him to start walking to build up his air capacity in the lungs. Thank you all for your prayers, cards, visits, food, the list could go on and on. We love you all and the next two weeks we are going to concentrate on getting him stronger and healthier for surgery.
The kids will be here next week so we are going to have a wonderful thanksgiving with food and football and maybe even decorate a little for Christmas.
Love to all and hope you all have a blessed thanksgiving.
Trish and Danny
