Doing Well But Need Plan B

Randy's surgery went well, but they were unable to get all of the tumors.  He is doing well, but the Doctors are working on Plan B.  Please pray for wisdom for the doctors and for Randy to gain strength for Plan B when they are ready.

Out of surgery

I did not get much of an update, other than the doctors started the surgery on him about 5:30 PM.  He is now out of surgery in the ICU.  Randy's mom will update me tomorrow on more details.

Surgery Time

Randy's surgery will start about 4 PM.  Should be a 4-6 hour surgery.  Thanks for your prayers.

Surgery

I will try to update as soon as I can about the surgery.  This surgery will be for his right lung, in which they will take a part of his lung.  Also, for the tumor that is pressing on his artery.  They do not know the exact time of the surgery but think it is in the afternoon.  So, he will probably not be finished until late Tuesday evening.  Please keep him in your prayers throughout the day.

Randy's Next Surgery

The next surgery will be Tuesday, May 29th.  Keep praying for him to gain weight and strength before he goes into this next surgery.

From Randy's Facebook update Saturday afternoon

Prayers are being answered! Turns out the tumors are NOT in my lymph system like the surgeon originally thought, again, excellent news!

Little set back for Randy

Little set back for Randy today. He was coughing up blood so they moved him back to the ICU.

Feeling good - working with the pain

I was able to talk to Randy this evening on the phone.  He sounds good.  He wanted to tell you all thank you for praying and supporting him.  He is doing well and his doctors told him he is doing well also.  They were able to get all the tumors out of the left lung, but will need to do the surgery again for the right lung in a week or two.  They did take him off the epidural today but it is a balancing act to get the right amount of medication to balance the pain vs. blood pressure issues.  He said the worst part was just what he expected - the cracking of the ribs.  That is the most painful part right now.  He wanted to talk, but it was getting painful, so I told him to STOP TALKING and get some rest.  He reminded me that he is happy and well.  What a trooper!  Keep on Rockin' Randy!

Randy is doing better today.
