callenish gunner Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 Ahoy Mates! Here's asking for your prayers for Salty as she goes into surgery today to have an enlarged thyroid removed. It has grown to rather extreme proportions and it has be removed because it has begun to obstruct her airway and her larynx. She'll be in the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Say a prayer that everything comes out without any complications, Thank you mates. She is a pretty incredible young woman...

callenish gunner Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 She has come out of surgery and is still in recovery but she's still not out of the woods yet ....a major issue is still being watched the dr's are concerned that her windpipe could collapse due to the removal of over 5 pounds of tissue from her throat with an additional transfusion of 2 units of blood....and her left vocal cord is partially if not totally paralyzed ...that will be a wait and see game on that one .... thanks to one and all who have sent and offered your prayers and best wishes ....

callenish gunner Posted March 7, 2008 Author Posted March 7, 2008 She's stabilized as of this evening...I want to thank you all for the prayers/thoughts you have sent via old ways, new age, or however ...it has meant a lot to both of us .....after almost 7 hours in surgery, she is holding up fairly well but she was pretty exhausted when I left the hospital ...the reduction of that large growth on her throat is now gone and her neck is once again looking pretty good ...please if you would keep her in your prayers and thoughts for a speedy and complete recovery ......more news to come!!
