Hi everyone. I just wanted to post that everything went very well with Jon's surgery on Tuesday morning and today his pain is very well controlled. The surgery was alot more complicated then the Drs. had originally thought. The cancer on Jon's shoulder that was removered for the TIL harvest was actually under a major muscle and in between another, so in order for the Drs. to get to the tumor they had to resection and take a large amount of two muscle groups on his shoulder out. Because of this complication they wanted Jon to stay a few more nights in the hospital to get the pain and everything else under control before getting on the airplane to go home. If everything is on schedule we should be able to go home on Friday night which we are very much hoping because this has been alot longer then we had hoped and we are both so home sick for our kids. Thank you everyone for your support you have shown to us. We are so happy and lucky to have such a strong support system that has backed us up every step of the way. We appreciate everyone remembering us in their prayers.
I just found out a couple nights ago that My sister's father-in-law Ken Marshall passed away after his long battle with his cancer. Jon and I are so sad for his family. I know it was expected and Ken was ready to return to his heavenly father, but at the same time it's hard for us here on earth who will greatly miss him. My prayers are with you Maxine. Ken was a wonderful person who was always kind and very friendly to Jon and I. He will be missed.
Take care and may everyone have the spirit to be with them.
