OUT OF SURGERY!!

Praise God!!! The surgery is over, and Donna is ready to drive herself home from the hospital so she can sleep in her own bed! However, with pain meds coursing through her veins she will not be driving yet...BUT she is back to her old self, debating with the doctor about the benefits and disadvantages of staying in the hospital overnight for monitoring...
THANK YOU ALL for your prayers on this last let of this challenging journey!! God's faithfulness and the love of His people has come shining through once more...
This photo is a 'before' picture, and Donna is still trying to locate the whereabouts of the fabulous silver cap!

The Final (Hopefully) Leg of the Journey

Tomorrow Ken and I will be at El Camino Hospital bright and early for the final leg of this journey.  My reconstructive surgery is scheduled for 7:30 am tomorrow.  What a relief to finally be at this stage in this adventure.  The surgery will last between 2 ½ to 3 hours.  My hope is to be home later tomorrow evening and to get to sleep in my own bed.  I’ve cleared the schedule as much as I can, have the pain meds sitting by the bathroom sink and have a stocked fridge.  We will try to get the blog updated as soon as possible after surgery.

So … let the adventure to continue.
Donna McKenzie was diagnosed with breast cancer on December 14, 2010. This is the story of her journey; a place for her to share her experiences, and for you to share your thoughts and prayers for Donna and her family.
