21249. Magoseph - 3/1/2007 8:24:30 PM Hey, checking with you, dear Moties--yesterday was a market day, all day for me and mostly buying.
How are you? 21250. judithathome - 3/1/2007 10:03:53 PM Facing making dinenr for 14 members of the garden club tonight. My neighbor and I are going to Sam's and buying two huge trays of some sort of Italian chicken and pasta dish and taking it up to the church kitchen at 5:15 to heat it up and bringing bagged salad and some garlic bread.
We volunteered to do this last week and both of us are kicking ourselves this afternoon.
21251. judithathome - 3/1/2007 10:04:16 PM shoot...DINNER. 21252. arkymalarky - 3/2/2007 12:17:48 AM I got through one hurdle this week (will bring the paper when I come to your house, Judith!;-)). Working on another next week, then grades, then do my work for my two courses I'm taking. My plate is full, but not too full or too stressful after next week. Until then I will hardly have time to look up, but that's okay. 21253. Magoseph - 3/2/2007 3:06:05 PM Hooray--starting next week, we will be looking to have more conversations in this thread and The Good Life--won't we now, dear lovely Arky? 21254. thoughtful - 3/2/2007 3:30:59 PM Mom came through surgery fine yesterday...thank goodness. No broken ribs and she actually looked good. Amazing considering she's almost 82. Doc saw no signs of it spreading to lymph nodes and removed the entire lobe of her lung. She was set up with the epidural pump, but as of last night, hadn't used it.
I had a heart attack though...while she was having surgery, the power went out! Fortunately it was brief, the OR backup generators kicked in and doc said it caused no disruption in the procedure at all. Whew! 21255. alistairconnor - 3/2/2007 4:13:02 PM Good for her!
Was it anticipated to remove a lobe of her lung? 21256. Magoseph - 3/2/2007 4:20:06 PM Great news, thoughtful--which lung was it and which lobe was removed? 21257. wabbit - 3/2/2007 4:31:13 PM That's great news, t'ful! 21258. wonkers2 - 3/2/2007 5:12:32 PM Glad for the good news, thoughtful! 21259. thoughtful - 3/2/2007 5:56:39 PM thanks guys.
Lower right lobe
well removing the whole thing was a possibility...tumor was large enough and centrally located in the lobe that taking it all made sense. It also greatly reduces the risk or recurrence vs. taking a wedge. 21260. arkymalarky - 3/3/2007 12:21:37 AM Wow, that sounds really good, Thoughtful! Keep us posted! 21261. arkymalarky - 3/3/2007 12:25:59 AM Why thank you, Mags! But in my least busy Fray/Mote days I wasn't a very dependable Cafe person. I'm still very much at work (five preps+ESL) through the end of May, but compared to what I have been doing, my job and two reasonable graduate classes and a few other events, including a Praxis II test and graduation, don't look like a bad spring schedule. 21262.
