Vonnie got out of recovery around 8:30pm. The doctors said everything went exactly as planned. We are now in her room and settling in for the night. By we, I mean that I am getting a cot and spending the night at the hospital next to my wife (much better than going to an empty house and obsessing over her).
Vonnie is doing pretty well. She is still a little groggy and is having some pain right now. She is trying to control it with Tylenol alone. She has the option of Vicodin or Dilaudid but is trying to avoid them if possible. I know some of our customers at the pharmacy would think she's nuts!
It will be at least a week before we get the results of the biopsy of the lymph nodes. We need to meet with her surgeon and her plastic surgeon and formulate the plan for the next steps.
The journey continues. We really appreciate all the prayers and notes of support. We love you all!
Len (and Vonnie)

Len and Vonnie,
We will continue to keep you in our prayers.

It's hard to sleep in a hospital room: unfamiliar sounds and scents and it seems like the nurses all wear iron horseshoes when they check in on you...but get as much rest as you can. We're tossing and turning with ya...
Thinking of you. Glad to hear the surgery went well. I hope you were able to get some sleep. Blessings. Irene
You have been in my thoughts and prayers. I want to bring you some comfort food when you get home, cheesy broccoli soup. Let me know when is the best day for you.
Remember, God is good all the time and all the time God is good. He will strengthen and lift you up.
Blessings
