” She had her surgery today. ..She went in at about 11:45 AM and they started at about 12:20. At 2:30 the surgeon came out and said everything went well, her vitals were all good and she would be in recovery for 2 or 3 hours.

They removed the left half of her pituitary which had a tumor in it. ....the right side looked good so he left that. We were very happy to hear this, as it hopefully means she won’t have to take medications for her lifetime to make up for no pituitary.

We didn’t get to see her until 8 PM. They had no room for her so she is spending the night in the recovery room. Tomorrow she will get moved to a ward similar to ICU but not quite as intense. She will still be monitored closely. Check for another update tomorrow night.”
