homeward bound

well....julie just called me FROM THE CAR and said they are on their way home. she sounded ecstatic to be out of the hospital and back in the real world. she has a pretty good supply of decent pain meds to help her and she is allowed to ease her way back into "real food". they will be home this a.m. but her first item on the agenda is a lot of sleep. she is hoping to get some real rest in her own bed so i plan to leave them alone until this evening and maybe check in again then. her surgeon was the actual doctor to discharge her this morning, and as of 7:30, he had not yet heard any pathology results. PLEASE continue to pray that comes back clean as a whistle so we can avoid chemo. but if indeed God has that in His plan for her, i know she will kick it's butt just like last time. SOOO....prayers again for the pathology and speed recovery now that she is home. thanks again everyone - i'll keep you posted! - tobra
