Follow up to Cora's surgery

Cora did a wonderful job with her surgery. Not a tear was shed. The results came back as a reactive lymph node. Thank God! She is back to school and feeling great. Her stitches will be taken out next Friday. All is well!

Cora's Surgery

For those of you that don't know, Cora is having surgery tomorrow. She has had large lymph nodes in her neck since she was a toddler. After many years of blood tests and antibiotics her Pediatrician decided to refer her to an ENT, Ear, Nose and Throat doctor. Dr. Flowers at York ENT Associates evaluated her and decided to remove the largest lymph node and have it tested. He is pretty sure that the lymph nodes all have been used from fighting off an infection and are taking forever to reduce in size. He compared it to an old factory that once was a working factory and is now sitting vacant. Tomorrow morning we will be arriving at the York Hospital at 6:15 am. Her surgery will start at 7:45 am. Dr. Flowers said it will be out patient as long as all goes as planned. I am thinking we should be home before 1:00 pm. I will update on Thursday when I get back to work. Have a wonderful evening. Say a prayer for Cora!!
