“Free at last, free at last, Thank God Almighty we are free at last.” – Reverend Martin Luther King Jr.<\/p>\n
They got it.\u00a0 The doctors got it.\u00a0 They got all the Melanoma out of my mom’s leg.\u00a0 The doctors called to tell her there is nothing left.\u00a0 And it didn’t spread to the lymph nodes either.\u00a0 They got it out before it spread.<\/p>\n
Thank God Almighty.<\/p>\n
I don’t know what they intend to do now.\u00a0 What other treatments they have planned.\u00a0 Right now though, she is just recovering from the surgery.\u00a0 They peeled her leg open like a clam shell to dig it all out, and then sealed it back together with sterile tape designed to hold it together as the skin heals.\u00a0 If all goes according to plan, she should be good again soon.\u00a0 A few days.\u00a0 A week or two.\u00a0 She can walk now, just not much.\u00a0 They told her to give it a rest so it doesn’t rip open on her.<\/p>\n
Barring complications though, they got it out in time.\u00a0 And now she just has to heal from getting her leg carved open.<\/p>\n
Thank God Almighty they got it all.<\/p>\n
And thank you to everyone who prayed or gave us good thoughts or anything.\u00a0 Thank you for taking time out of your day to think about my mom and give her your best wishes.<\/p>\n
Thank you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
