"HOPE"-Pure and Simple was important today!!!
Last night Jane had shown me some gifts received and have chosen to label today's last entry from one of the books she received. Patty once again is a true friend and came to talk to us around 5pm and escorted us up to the Intensive Care Unit waiting area. We were able to visit with Jane earlier than expected as Patty knew of Barry's busy day tomorrow. Obviously at this time Jane is need of the multiple of tubes we witnessed-respirator,2 chest tubes,right groin central line,nerve block line,2 jackson prat drainage bulbs,foley,ekg monitor,large chest dressing, etc. When she was able to speak wanted me to talk about the real deal in her blog.Also dressing from grafting sites. It was a short visit as they were still getting her settled for a safe and comfortable night.Thank u Nurses Jess #1 and Jess #2.respiratory therapy etc. After this visit the best news of the day was given to us by one of the thoracic surgeons that operated on her-Lady Physician-Dr. Trainor. "WE GOT IT" Music to our ears. sounded like a Red Sox win to me. Off for now and a verse in book reads-God makes healthy what is sick,right what is wrong,and straight what is crooked!! Off to bed soon as we leave 4;45 am for Barry's chemo treatment at a different hospital. Thanks for all your well wishes and thank u Jane for letting me use about 500 cell phone minutes!!

Thank God. we'll keep praying and know you and Barry are in our thoughts. Great news!!!!!!!!!!!! Sue and Dave
Maureen you have done such a wonderful job with the updates. Everyone has been so thankful for all your information. We were all on pins and needles today worrying about her. It was hard knowing we couldn't see her when we had promised we would be there. Just remember to let her know that we would be there if we could. I will pray for the pain team tonight to keep her comfortable. I believe we all experienced a miracle today. Our girl has no cancer!!!!! I can't wait until she can fully comprehend that. I told her I would look her in the eyes when I saw her and tell her those words. It has been a long time coming. Anything you need tomorrow, just let me know. Barry hang in there tomorrow. Your day is no less important. We will be thinking of you. Remember, I have to be in Pittsburgh on Sat. evening so if anything is needed, just let me know. Hope you get a good nights sleep.
love
becky
Great updates Maureen!
Tell Jane we are prying and we love her.
Keep up the posting.
Maureen & Barry: Please let Jane know that Uncle Howard, Aunt Betty, Cousin Deb and Howie send their love and tons of prayers!
Please tell Jane that Crys loves her and she will be getting that picture of the ocean very soon. I am so thankful for the good news and this Blog.
God Bless you All.
We won't talk about those drains LOL I have stock in that company. I just wish I could have one now so this incision would stop draining, but they can't because of the mesh. This is a long process this time. Jane, it will get better every day. Love u all Eileen
