Surgery & Recovery

Em's surgey went well. She took longer than expected for the anesthesia to take effect but once started, it only took about 10 minutes for Doctor Rodgers to remove the mass. He mentioned that the mass was not encapsulated which is "not so good news". It was attached from the inside of the skin wall to the muscle. He removed all of it but because it wasn't encapsulated there is a greater risk of regrowth. They will send it off to pathology for evaluation, we should know something in a couple of weeks.

Em is currently resting on my chest and is doing terrific!
