I emailed the drs this morning after we did not hear anything last night. The drs asked me not to share with Cody as they will tell him tomorrow. He will be getting the surgery to take out the affected area in the colon. He will be getting a colostomy bag while it heals. We do not know the exact day as it all depends on his recovery of his counts. His platelets and red blood cells are dropping and obviously this could be dangerous. They do not want to stop chemo as it would also be too dangerous.
Tomorrow we head in for a count check and Casey and Nicole get in nice and early so they will meet us at the hospital. Today Cody wants to go to Dowling to see if he can pick up the rest of his pottery and also talk to his advisor.
I will keep you posted...for now...prayers needed..thanks!
Mary,
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine how you must feel knowing about the surgery and having to wait for Cody to hear from his doctors. It is a very difficult position to be in. He's tough and will adjust to this although it is a very, very big deal. I wish it were all otherwise and we had never met (at least under these circumstances). I hope with all my heart that Cody will continue to be the tough, determined fighter he's been and kick cancer's ass again!
Mary, I'm thinking of you & Cody and hoping everything will work out fine. Sending my best hugs & thoughts for nothing but good news ahead...
ReplyDeleteThank you both so VERY much...we are praying and hoping. Thank you for thinking of us...always...xoxoxox
