Surgery done!

Tondalea came through the surgery with flying colors, with about the best results that we could hope for. The lump was removed of course, along with two lymph nodes that the doctors checked on the spot for signs of cancer spread. The lymph nodes were clean, which meant that they didn't need to take out more of them. There's still some testing to do on them at a more specialized lab, but so far these are the results we hoped for.

Tondalea is home now, resting in her own bed. The kids have been coming up one at a time to check in with her and make sure she's really OK. To some degree the surgery was the simple part - there's still radiation to do, and the open question of chemotherapy. But we're enjoying the good results for now. :)
