With the setback with Cindy's pancreas, the surgery has been canceled. Tami is up with Cindy now and the nurse said it could take about a week for the pancreas to heal. They are talking about next week now for the shunt surgery. So again, Cindy is discouraged, but we are not surprised. Although Cindy thought she was ready, her body is not. Also, we were concerned with drs. The main dr that had been speaking with the Milwaukee dr and was going to do the surgery is on vacation right now, and another one was going to do the surgery, but he was already planning on doing his own thing and Cindy was not comfortable with that at all. When Cindy was speaking with him yesterday and talking about different shunts etc, he said she knew too much which made us all a little nervous. So this has probably been a blessing in disguise.
Please continue to keep her in your prayers.
Thank you all!!!

Yes, that is discouraging for Cindy. I'm sure she is thinking how much of the summer she is missing, how she'd love to get home, how she misses the kids...all of that. But it surely is best if her body is not ready. It sounds like she needs to heal and gain strength before she will be ready. You will probably all be relieved if the doctor who is now on vacation can do the surgery! We continue to pray daily for Cindy's health and strength!

Still appreciating your updates! Let me know if there is anything I can do. If you ever need someone to sit w/ Cindy on a weekend or overnight, I can sure be there for her! We keep praying for Cindy to be able to come home and her healing to take place. We'd love to see a glimpse of our "old" Cindy again!
Still praying....
