It Was Benign

MrsRW had an operation today to remove a substantial cyst on an ovary. All the first indications a couple weeks ago were pretty frightening, but as the tests went on, the news continued to look more and more promising - though there could be no 100% understanding of what this was until it was gotten at in surgery.

Though very large, it was benign, and there is no cancer. She will be coming home perhaps as early as Friday, but most likely sometime Saturday, with a clean bill of health.

It was a wake up call for us. But she's going to be back at it in no time. God willing.

Benign is such happy news! I had a hysterectomy a few years ago and had a giant cyst on my ovary that was suspected to be cancer. I will never forget the feeling I had when I found out it was not cancer. I am so happy for you both!

I'm very happy Mrs. RW is okay. Give her a hug from me.
