Dad has his surgery this morning at Wake Forest. The doctors took out the spot on his lung, however they did not see any other spots so they didn't take the whole lobe of the lung. He is in ICU now and they are keeping a watch on his breathing. He is breathing at 2500 which the nurse said was good. Mom said he is hitting the morphine pump pretty hard and that he is pretty out of it. Levi, Maranda, Chris and I are going down on Saturday to visit. We won't know the official results of the spot that was removed until Pathology looks at it, but from the initial look from the doctors in surgery they believe it is related to the colon cancer and not the start of lung cancer. That isn't the best news. I will keep you updated as I know more. I just talked to mom while typing this and she said she isn't allowed to go back into the ICU room until 5:00. Thank you for all of your calls, prayers, texts, and support. It means so much to us.
Love,
Heidi
