Post surgery

Mom is out of surgery and awaiting her transfer to ICU. We got to go see her and talk to her for a bit.
The cancer was wide spread and the Dr. had to remove her spleen, kidney, colon, ovaries and peritoneum. She has had 7 units of blood and she may need more. A number of large tumors were removed.
The Dr. says she will be in the hospital for some time (20 days maybe).
