100% Cancer Free!!!

It's official!  The lab results came back yesterday on the lymph nodes removed during surgery on Monday and they are completely clear of cancer.  Stacey does not have cancer! 

As for recovery, she is making remarkable progress.  Dr. Soukiasian came by about 7am Wednesday morning and pronounced her no longer critical.  He released her from ICU barely more than 36 hours from admitting her to ICU.  This is no doubt due to the great job he and his team did but no small measure of this success is owed directly to Stacey's determination to do everything the doctor has asked to letter perfection. 

Right now we are on a "tube- and wire-removal countdown".  Monday she had 8 tubes and numerous wires connected.  She's down to 5 tubes and no permanent wires.  She'll be home before you know it!
