Laparoscopy didn’t find cancer spread

Mom_and_Andrew.jpg9:00 am: Louise just came to tell us that they have completed the laparoscopy, and they did NOT see any spread of the cancer.  Thank heavens!  Step one complete.  They are now going to make a small incision on her right side and feel the tumor area.  If it feels the way it looked in the CT scan, they make a bigger incision and take a look.
Louise said we’d be moved from the group waiting room to her room soon, and she thought we’d get our next update at 11 am.   I am SO relieved!
