Good News!!

Mom is in recovery now after a 3 hour surgery! There was more scar tissue than they originally thought, and they did find another small abscess that they removed, but it looks like they were able to successfully reverse her colostomy! Mom will be beyond THRILLED when she wakes up and hears it was a go! Dr. Martin even "pressure tested it" which made my Dad giggle a little. I will have more information when he gets to go upstairs and talk to Mom herself, but if everything continues to go well (they are CLOSELY monitoring her blood sugar this time) she will spend a few days in the hospital and then within about a month she should be pretty close to back to normal! Praise the Lord!

Thank you all for your prayers and Love for our Mom! We are so blessed to have you all in our lives and I know Mom has felt every single prayer and good thought!

More to come in a few hours!
