    I hope no news is good news also. I would think he would be in ICU in pretty grave condition for a while after the surgery. And you're not allowed to use computers and cell phones because it interferes with the monitoring equipment. Continuing to send prayers for Granny & son.

    Hey guys, I know K (granny) posts here. I have lurked but not posted... Anyway, I heard from her yesterday,Thursday at 6:56 PM:

    "The surgery was unsuccessful. He is in ICU now. This is the first time in history that this failed. 14 hrs and we are back to square one. Don't know what that means but he is still on a breathing tube and he had a seizure. That's all I know. I'm waiting for my DD to come now. I'll try to keep you posted."

    I have hunted around & didn't see any post from her at BCO so thought I'd pass this along from her. I'm sure she won't mind. I forgot to ask if it was okay that I do this. (love ya K!!)

    If I hear more, I will post as soon as I do. Sorry for this delay.

    Shady... it was some sort of brain surgery.....  don't know much more than that... just that other surgeons were coming in from another country? And trying something new?   Crap!  But miracles happen gals.... I'm praying for just one more.

    Thank you camillegal( every time I c that, I chuckle...cam illegal decadent:)) I'm finished with tissue expanders and have what I hope are my final boobs! I'm also hoping that surgery is finished- I've not decided on whether or not I'm going to bother with a nipple or not ....

    U know I knew this surgery was very long and laborious--it's almost like a rewiring of all rhat's there---but honestly I never thought it wouldn't work--It just seemed so so much was under control and all these Drs. I assumed to quickly. Now poor Granny has to face what's coming up which of course we have no idea what this means for her DS. I feel so sad and I'm new with Granny so I can imagine how awful u all feel too.

    Congratulations Merlcat!  Wow!  Good for you..... geez, I can't imagine what you gals have to go through with that.....  It MUST be like "re-wiring"...  That's a good analogy...  Yea, see what happens to see if you want the nipples, or not.... I don't know how they do THAT either.... 

    Take good care gals....xoxoxoxo

    I am now an official member of the fabulous flatties.



    Home from surgery. I had the surgery at noon on Wednesday and was discharged at 2pm on Thursday. It was so nice to be coming home. The lymph node biopsy was negative. Yes!! I am lucky to have my hubby. He stayed with me in the room all night in case I needed anything, he grounded me from my phone and iPad so I would sleep. I am glad he did. I would have been on it too much.



    I have ace bandages and gauze around my chest. The drains are doing well, is it true to wear the ace bandage as tight as you can stand it? Also, my chest looks con-caved, will it eventually be flat across?



    My first dressing change was done by a friend who is a nurse, she brought us supper last night and then helped me. She said it all looked good. To rest, only get up for meds and bathroom, and take my meds onetime.



    I am not in any pain, I do have discomfort but it is not too bad. The ace bandage is really tight. I am napping in the recliner.

    Thanks so much Valjean for the update. I know she wouldn't mind you posting something. She knows we are all praying for her and her son.  I also want to thank the Mods for posting.  I bet Granny is going ballistic right now.  I am so very sorry the surgery did not work.  I know she was hoping it would.  ((((GRANNY))))

    Hey Kassie--u sound good--I told u this is not painful, just annoying and I don't remember anything being really tight so either call or ask u'r nurse friend. Ihope u fill out alittle, but I'm o concave on one side the other isn't as vad, never changed and I'm glad u have a DH to help u even if u need drains cleared out, it helps. But do rest, sometimes u feel better and think oh I can do this---DON'T just relax, u need to heal. I remember my Dr. telling me not to carry a purse for a while. Geeze he was strict. So use u'r common sense about taking it easy. OK?
