Hi Everyone,

My apologies for not updating things , I've been busy " recreating what next"

From Seminar at Cancer house of hope on "Family life with Cancer" to filling out grants to educate others on this journey, along with MA.

I have refused to slow down but now I am in the hospital being forced to re-adjust

The last 2 weeks or so she has not been feeling like she expected and very sore and red in her abdomen area and of course I told her that all things considered, 10+ hour surgery notwithstanding, that she should be a feeling a little discomfort on occasion but it was a LOT of discomfort and pain as well as fluid leaking from her incision as well as a large red area around that same abdomen area and very hard/firm in that area.

This weekend she was really out of sorts and Sunday afternoonshe had a serious ?explosion? of blood and fluid, 4 washcloth towels full from that abdomen area where she previously had a drain tube. Thank God our friend Laurie was there to help and get things under control.

So Monday, 6/1/2015, off to the doctors and he tried to drain more fluid from that area. Yes a NEEDLE was needed and she was so sore from what was going on underneath the surgery area that it was so difficult for her, to say the least. We both had tears and just seeing what she was going through made me feel so helpless. The fluid seepage slowed down some but by Tuesday evening it picked up again and by today, Wednesday morning, a call to the doctor was necessary and he had us head right to the emergency room. It was immediately diagnosed by her surgeons as an issue that a ?minor? surgical procedure could take care of. So Cindy had another surgery this evening and she is resting as we speak in the hospital. Hopefully home Friday night or Saturday morning.

The diagnosis for what was effecting her is called Hematoma Cellulites.

So again, sorry for staying out of the loop but I promise to keep you all updated.

Thank you again for your prayers and concerns, Cindy appreciated it so much. So we are going to let her rest for a day or 2 with just a short visit a couple of times tomorrow and get her home and back to normal!!

Thank You All Again

Dan, Ashley & Tyler
