We finally got a call back from my doctor in Anchorage today with the results of the abdominal ct scan. (they used a machine, not an actual cat like they use down here in homer, hehehe).
She told Alicia that the mass we thought was the ovarian cancer was revealed to be a simple hernia. Well, we don't know it is simple yet, but compared to it being an ovarian tumor, a hernia sounds simple. Dr. Murray said she really thinks we will find that I don't have cancer yet, she thinks the chance of cancer is "very, very slim" and she is hoping they will do a simple hysterectomy and see if they can repair the hernia and in 3 or 4 days, I'll be home and fine.
We are all dancing off the walls with joy around here. Thank you for all your wonderful prayers. I know we can feel them working.
Love, Charlotte

the other day Alli said in her prayer, "And please bless Aunt Charlotte that she can get better so she can have more fun."
I thought that was pretty cute.
We love you, and are thrilled about the news of your hernia. (that sounded funny).
This is FABULOUS! I am so glad for you. Love you, Sandra
Woo-hoo! That's wonderful! That will certainly make facing the surgery easier, huh? Keeping you always in our thoughts and prayers.
What day do you leave for your surgery?
Love ya!!
