Jessica is Home

Hi there everyone! Jessi is home a feeling much better! As everyone one knows Jessi had surgery. It happen so fast her surgeon called me on a Monday and said,"Pre op tomorrow and surgery on Thursday." I didn't know what to say. But okay! They had found two spots on Jessi's kidney and they needed to go in and see what they were, they said one for sure is scare tissue but the other one they didn't know. Her surgery was three hours long. We had to check in at 5:30 am and Jessi knew some thing was up, she was not happy! After surgery the doctor came up to see us and said they had biopsied them and they both came back as tumors. One of them was really close to a blood artery and he tried to get as close as possible but he thinks he got it all. They send it out for a biopsy and then they will let us know what the next step is. We went to see Jessi in the recovery room and the first thing she said to us is that her tummy hurts. She broke my heart! All her other surgery's Jessi didn't talk so now she could not tell me what she was feeling and I don't know if I liked that. But anyways Jessi got to come home on Sunday July 20th. She is doing great. We have an appointment on July 29th to see a radiation doctor in LA. We talked to doctor Horvath and they want to give her some radiation. Then do another MRI and then she said she should be quiet for a while. Let me see is that telling me that the tumors are going to come back? Anyways she did say if they come back there is nothing they could do anymore they would have to remove the kidney and put her on dialysis.
