Surgery went well
 

They took Keith in for surg. at 7:30 this morn, it took about 45 mins. Dr. said that it went very well, the "mass" seemed to be confined to just the testicle area from what he could tell. Wants to see him back in a week, will discuss results of the biopsy at that time, also do a CT scan at that time. We were home by 1pm!! Keith doesn't seem to be having too awful much pain, just complaining of his legs cramping up from keeping them in the same position as it hurts to move them too much.
Thanks to all for the ever so many prayers, we'll keep ya posted.

Marilyn

Corkybird, glad to hear that everything went well today and the mass seems to be confined. I hope the biopsy report brings you more good news!

Thanks for the update Marilyn. :) I'm glad to hear the surgery went well, and it sounds like he'll have a good prognosis. Continued prayers for Keith and your family.

Adding my prayers Marilyn. Glad this surgery is behind him. :hug:

The waiting...
 

Now comes the long wait...until the follow up appt. next Monday. Keith's doing remarkable good!!! He didn't loose his appetite at ALL...lol. Wednesday evening, the live-in girlfriend needed to go to the groc. store and I had choir practice. Dad said he'd "sit with him" while she did the shopping. By time Dad got down there, Keith was up and dressed in warm clothes and said "If you don't mind pushing me dad in one of the stores wheelchairs, I can go with you guys, I feel ok". So they did!! He was fine, except realized a bit of dizziness when he got up and started walking around (apparently the pain med was doing it's job). We have received sooooo many emails, phone calls, etc. from all over the world!!! Hugs to each and every one of you
:grouphug:
After reading stuff online, we've found out that 95% of tumors found in the testicle are malignant, but they are 98% curable if found in the early stage (which we feel his is). I still say it's like sex ed. for us seniors checking out all the websites!!! LMAO


God bless you all!!!

Corky,

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers :hug::hug:

Corky,

I haven't been here in a while, so it's great to hear that it went well. I'm sure that the waiting is going to be hard. I think it's great that at least your son asked for the wheelchair. Most men wouldn't do that. At least he has some common sense. ;)

I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers.

Hope
