Surgery Update

I feel bad that it took me this long to add this message...especially for those whom I don't speak to on a normal basis. Anyhow, Sam's surgery was completed on Wednesday, August 29th. It took about an hour to remove a Thyroglossal duct cyst on Sam's neck. Sounds worse than it was. Actually just a little piece of residual thyroid tissue left over from development while Sam was still growing inside me. He did as well as expected, and was back to running around the house the next day like nothing ever happened. He would proudly lift his chin to show anyone his special "sticker." On Friday, we went to get the bandage off (all stitches are internal and will dissolve on their own) and the pathology results from the lab showed no signs of cancer--Praise God! If you ask Sam where his sticker went, he'll grab his neck and say, "It's all better now." And it is!
