Looks like Mom is going to be eating again soon!
The fear before the surgery was that the blockage was caused by cancer and that there could be some danger in doing the surgery at all because of the risk of spreading cancer.
Well, they went in and found that the blockage was being caused by scar tissue. A very large, very old ball of scar tissue. It is not near the tumor and so, having dealt with that, the plan is to get Mom up and walking, eating and functioning well, and get her home. After she is stronger and able to tolerate it she will be able to get back to the chemo.
I am hoping to be able to go home with mom and dad. I have to leave on Wednesday and if she can go home on Sunday then I can go and help her get settled at home. I just want to see her face when she gets out of the car and gets to breathe the fresh air and go to sleep in her own bed.
I think that Mom had thought a few times that maybe that wasn't going to happen.
So today was a very good day. God has Blessed us, as He has so many times.
We are grateful indeed.
