99 problems but pain ain't one

Hello all. Alright a quick update on Jason and the rest of us. We got here for surgical check in at 930am and I don't know what happened but he didn't go back to prep until sometime after 1200. We decided to do an epidural to help with pain control after the surgery. Glad to report it is working fabulously and Jason is as high as a kite. It's entertaining at least. The surgery took about three hours, much better than the predicted five and a half. He has a nice upside down u shape incision to go right next to the sickled shaped one from the hip resurfacing. They pulled down his. Gluteus muscles and removed the mass and were able to basically hole punch a part of his pelvis out. Dr. Satcher said that the cells were dividing but they did not appear malignant that's why they opted with a more conservative approach. They won't know the full pathology until Mondayish. He says he believes it was pre-malignant. Jason will just go back to having scans more often for a while. Still a success in my opinion and better news than we thought we were going to hear. He did attempt to walk this morning, it did not work very well. He stood but his left leg did not want to cooperate with him. They are dialing back the epidural and we will try again in a bit. Last night was rough, he was incredibly nauseated and was throwing up. Yucky! Zofran didn't work, finally they gave some phenergan and that did the trick. He was able to eat this morning and kept it down. Its always funny calling in food for him because the people who take the orders never seem to believe that I really am just ordering for him. Oh well. I'll let y'all know more when we do. Thanks for the prayers and good vibes, they seemed to have worked! Prayers welcomed~Kimmy
