Kerry is alive and well

This isn't really a question, but my mom, Kerry Wilson, wanted me to post here and let you guys know she's alive and recovering. She had her surgery on Monday morning, and underwent the HIPEC treatment for this second surgery in an effort to really knock out the cancer. The doctor said he removed 96-98% of all visible tumor, and that the HIPEC should have effectively diminished and reduced the remaining tumor. She may need to undergo additional chemo however, but that remains to be seen. Thank you for your concern.

Ah, those blessed "bowel sounds." Normally we try to hide them but I'm glad you're gurgling. Glad you're up for posting too. Keep getting better.
