I am home from my follow up appointment without the tubes/drains! Dr. Brown looked at Dave's outstanding record keeping of the drain fluid amounts and my surgery site and prompltly removed the tubes. (Actually, the whole family has been helping with the holding, recording and so on of the drains.) I report back Dr. Brown in one week for another follow up appointment.
No need for a chest X-ray at this point either. Praising Him for this! I am breathing normally (for after surgery) and do not have the discomfort I had a week ago. If I should have discomfort, trouble breathing, then I would have to go to the ER. So, again, praising Him for His continued healing!
We are so grateful to God for what He has done in our lives this far. I am also thankful to have some recovery time before I begin Chemo treatment. All of your prayers have been so instrumental in His plan for me and my family. Please continue praying with us and growing in His ways.

We prayed for you in church today--for Julie as a mom and a cancer patient, for Dave as a husband walking with his wife through this, for Maddie and David Paul as precious little ones. Our hearts are with you. May the Lord bless you with the little riches that are so big when they are threatened. Gil and Sara
