Cathy & I saw Trish when she came out of surgery, Friday. She had good color and was glad the news was better than expected. Saturday, they had her sitting up in a chair at 6am and walking the floor by 4pm. Her blood pressure was low and she felt lightheaded, so her walk was delayed until the late afternoon. Sunday, Trish is feeling much better, she is eating a bit and the pain is tolerable. We are all awaiting the results of the 28 biopsies, which will determine if more surgery is required or if she will be treated by chemo alone. If all the results are as we hope, Trish will be released by Friday, 4/16. We should also know her chemo schedule, which we believe will be at least a month from her surgery date, so she can fully heal. She may stay in NYC, close to the hospital for several days and then travel home to recuperate. She'll travel to NYC to have her chemo.
Cathy will be in NYC all week, Mike and Denny also visited Saturday and Sunday. Yes, 4 Walshes in one room (Sloan Kettering may never take another patient by the name of Walsh).
If you want to send a card to Trish, her address in NYC is
Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital
1275 York Ave.
Room 1035A
New York City, NY 10065
That's all for now, keep those prayers and good thoughts coming.
