Tender mercies

...Update...

The surgery went well.  I got the absolute BEST care. Everyone was very kind.  Great news is that the surgeon could tell from the preliminary examination of the tumors that they're benign!  NO CANCER!!  

Now we just have to wait for the in-depth tests to tell us what they are, why they're growing, and how to fix them so I can breathe.  Still this was a great first step and AWESOME news.

Today I am sore, tired, and REALLY swollen.  My ice-pack is my new best friend!!! lol

Thank you all for your love, support, and prayers.  I have no words for how very much they help me.  God bless you all!
