Thanks for the update, Wendy! It sounds like you are doing very well with your recovery.

Your doctors are on the ball with doing the next surgery to try getting clean margins. You must be upset about this, I know I would be if I were in your situation. Hopefully there will be clean margins this time.

I know how lousy it is being stuck in the hospital. Please update when you are up to it.

Wishing you all the very best with everything.
