Cathy checked into the hospital at 5:30 am and the surgery took several hours. Cathy is recovering well and is in good spirits. we have a long battle ahead of us fighting this cancer which is going to be more difficult than we thought. They are still running tests to find the source, it is not ovarian as expected. We should know more Friday. Without trying to freak anybody out the cancer is more severe than they realized and she will need very aggressive treatment. Fortunately she is young and strong so they can be aggressive. In fact the doctor could not believe she had such major surgery earlier in the day when he visited her in the evening. she was conversing well, telling jokes and just taking it in stride. Her skin looks great, not at all pale. She's a very strong woman (her dad says she gets that from him).
The hospital is Bayfront Medical Center, 701 6th Street South, St. Petersburg, FL 33701-4891
