We spoke with a member of the orthopedic team today about the plans for surgery on my mom's pelvis and arm. After the more precise CT scan, they have decided that she still needs the surgery on her pelvis, but that it is a relatively minor operation. The surgeries are scheduled for tomorrow (no word yet on exactly when), and they felt confident that she could get into the OR tomorrow, though there is always some chance of getting pushed back if there are others who need to get in more urgently. We'll update the blog this evening with more info.
Also my family would like to let everyone know that we appreciate very much all of the supportive emails, texts, and calls we've all been receiving. Unfortunately, with everything going on we haven't always been able to respond individually to everyone, but please know that we do read and appreciate all of the support, and we tell my mom about it all when we're visiting her. I'm sure you understand, but we wanted to make sure we express our gratitude as it means so much to my family.
