Sept. 30 Started to get on blog and it is all new. A new format the computer says. Darn, It takes time to figure out what is what. And my last blog is kinda brief and does not tell the whole story.
So will try to sort it out.
Two years ago a spot was found on Ernies right lung. All sorts of test, and the biopsy could not be done as the little tumor kept hiding behind a rib, just at the Doctor was ready to go for it.
Long story short, Ernie got a c-scan every 3 months to watch that little buger.
In May this year it had changed, and changed more on the next scan. So down the throat for a biopsy. This revealed some cancer cells. More testing to see if there was cancer anywhere else.
None in body or head. On Sept. 30 he had half of his right lung removed. surgery was a success.
Lymph nodes looked clean and good. (and lab reports showed no cancer cells there either) all
contained in the lung.
Friday was a good day. Then the spinal wore off and he actually started having some pain.
He was restless and the blood pressure and breathing became erratic. So a breathing tube was insserted down his throat and he was kept sedated until Tues. am. slowly woke up and by now
is pretty much back to good ole Ernie. Should get out of ICU sun. or Mon. Will write more later.
