Surgery Tomorrow

Prayers have been answered--Mom is scheduled for surgery tomorrow, December 15th, at 9:50 am at the Huntsman Cancer Institute. The pain and swelling became to great for her. I was able to visit with Dr. Soisson's wonderful nurse, Nancey and explain the situation. She told what I could do to comfort Mom as much as possible. Two hours later she called me back and said Dr. Soisson is on the other line....he feels very strongly she needs to be scheduled for surgery asap...after rearranging his schedule Mom will have surgery tomorrow! A huge relief was lifted off her shoulders when I told her the news. Dad left for New Mex yesterday and is returning to Utah as I write this update. He wasn't even home for 24 hours.....he loves Mom more than words can be expressed.

    Chris my sis!!! I love you so much! Yes prayers were answered. So grateful she was able to get in tomorrow. What a relief for her. I can't stand the thought of her in so much pain. Now, after tomorrow she can begin her road to recovery. I know it won't be easy but she will beat this. Prayer and Priesthood along with outstanding Doctors do perform miracles. I love you Chris my Sis!

    Love, Jeanne Cahoon

    Good luck tomorrow and we will be praying for a quick recovery. I spent a lot of my childhood with the Cooks, and Mr. and Mrs. Cook were like my second set of parents back then. Get well soon and lots of love.....
