Dominique had blood work today and a small check-up to make sure she’s ok for surgery.  Her blood counts are really high- (they are amazing) and she has gained a half a kilo since she finished chemo and now weighs 11 kg.

Tomorrow we will find out the actual time of the surgery.  And as far as how tumor will be resected-.  The surgeon will first try the scope and if that is unsuccessful then he will make the large incision. We won’t know which technique is used until the surgery is over.

Time spent in the hospital on that day: 1.5 hrs
