Surgery Results (Posted by Rob)

Shauna is out of surgery and waking up. Surgery went very well. To quote her doctor, "The breast came right off." They checked 2-3 sentinel lymph nodes and everything was clear. They will do a more thorough examination of those but that is a very good sign. They will also look more closely at the tumor and make sure that it has good healthy tissue all the way around (clear margins) and if everything looks good, Shauna will be in the fast lane to recovery.

Thanks again for all the thoughts and prayers.
