Surgery complete
Greg's surgery is complete - they got going right away at 7:45 and finished around 9am.
The doctor described it as very routine, and said it went well.
There were 4 lesions, but they did not have to remove very much lung tissue at all - hislunch lung capacity should still be very good.
Greg is now recovering, and so far all is well. Since Greg did so well last time, the doctor does not expect to have any problems, so they are hoping he will be able to get out quickly.
Praise God, they got everything they know about at this time.

Don and Joyce - I love that comment about the cancer getting a clue by now.
While none of us know for sure what's God's purpose is for putting Greg through so many trials, we have to agree that Greg has been a testament of faith and an inspiration to many.
Thanks for the latest news. We will continue to pray.

Wonderful news! We are thrilled to hear that it went so well.
We KD's here have been planning our summer outing with our husband's the second week in July. You'll be perfect by then so maybe your parents can come. We did all the planning just today and so all our prayers have come your way today. Also to Christine. Willeyne Berger

We are glad to hear things have gone well so far, Greg. It sounds like you have not experienced the pain you did last time (so far) which is fantastic. We are thinking of you and we wish for continuing recovery for both you and Christine.
