Byron's surgery went well but it was very long - 8.5 hrs. Uggh. They
got all 3 tumors out but one broke open and spilled, which could be
bad. All the more reason for chemo to follow. Hopefully it was all dead tissue - they will do pathology and we
will soon know if the chemo was working. They had to remove a vein
completely and part of an artery, so he will have leg swelling for a
month or so until things repair and reroute. All of his organs are
intact and that is very good news. So all in all, it was a very
successful surgery. They let me see him around 10 PM last night and
he was very out of it - hopefully he'll mostly sleep for the next
couple of days. I'm off to the hospital now - yea!
Thanks for all of your love and support. We had a great weekend and I will be putting up some pictures from his shows this weekend soon.

Hi Kathy,
Kim Lung sent us the link to your blog and I just wanted to say that I think of you often and have you both in my prayers. I know you are both fighting the good fight and will emerge victorious on the other end. Life has a way of testing us and I know you will pass this test with an A+++ (yes, that's still the teacher in me!)
No need to respond; just wanted you to know that I'm thinking of you.
All my prayers,
Jerrilyn
