Bill survived the 5 hour surgery!



Recommended Posts

My husband Bill had lung cancer. He was under the knife for 5 hours after them delaying the surgery that was scheduled for 7:30 the night before to noon in the morning and he actually went at 2:30. The surgery itself was a success. They were able to do it with small incisions and not crack his ribs thank God. Because of all your prayers the surgeon's hands were guided by God. But in intensive care it was a nightmare. They had to tie him down so he wouldn't pull out the tubes especially the breathing tube. When I saw my strong man all tied up and a tube down his throat it was too much for me. He looked like he was dead. I broke down and had to get out of there. I stayed at my youngest boys house and did manage to get 4 hrs sleep. Getting ready to go back. My middle son stayed in hospital room with him.

Please continue to pray for his recovery. Thank you.

My prayers are with you and your family. I went through this with my brother this past April. Thankful to God that he made it. They removed half of his right lung and he is going through radiation in 2 months. He started chemotherapy right after he had his surgery. Your DH is in great hands as long as you leave him in Gods.

So glad to hear he made it through the surgery well and with a less invasive procedure. It's hard seeing a loved one in a state like he was, but just give it a few days and prayerfully all will be much better. Don't forget to take care of yourself during this time, make sure you are getting plenty of rest, fluids and don't forget to eat as well. I will be praying for a speedy recovery. Take care and God bless!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
