WONDERFUL NEWS!!!!! Everything looks good. Couldn't even find anything to biopsy. Thank you God and Merry Christmas to us!! (sounds like it was just the gunk Jeff gags up every morning.) They had to suction a lot out. Will refer him to a lung specialist to check for allergies, ect.

***UPDATE on my plan to not tell Jeff. I waited till 5pm Christmas afternoon and and started telling him that like are daugher-in-law just planned a trip for our son's 30th birthday and called him at work to say they were leaving on a plane in 2 hours for NY" I told him he had 1 1/2 hours to pack leave since I made reservations in the cites (at the Hope Lodge). He knew right away that it was medical and wasn't happy that I hadn't told him the truth. After the shock wore off he realized it was the best thing I could of done. Just knowing his attitude last night and this morning before surgery proved it would of been a bad week and awful Christmas. I also found out that between our 4 adult kids and 15 year old only one can handle details and the other 4 don't want to know anything, just like their dad.

Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!!
