Morgan had a good day today. She was feeling well and in good spirits.
We met with the plastic surgeon today that will be working along side the thoracic surgeon.
The doctor informed us that after the thoracic surgeon removes Morgan's clavicle, possibly top rib and part of her sternum, he will be taking some muscle and tissue from either her leg or her back to put in place of where the clavicle was removed to help her with mobility.
The entire surgery should take around 8 hours and then Morgan will be in ICU for about a day. Once she is stable, they will move her to the ward where she will recover in the hospital for 1 to 2 weeks.
We are now waiting for an appointment with the anesthesiologist which we are told will be a 2 hour appointment.
It was a stressful day for Morgan and us as well just hearing how in depth the surgery will be. We will be happy to get over this hurdle as it will bring us one step closer to curing Morgan of her cancer.
