Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
I leave for Madison in the morning to check into a motel. Then at 2 pm I drink the wonderful bowel cleaning fluid. Tuesday morning I check into the VA hospital at 5:30 am for a 7 am surgery start. They have blocked out 5 hours for robotic microsurgery. It’s not complicated but it is tedious. I’m not expecting complications although I’ll have a 4-6 week recovery I should be fine.
I suspect my next post will be Wednesday.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

You’re under the knife (robot?) as I type this so I’m sending good karma your way. Here’s to a successful procedure and a fast recovery.

Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
The surgery is over and took a little over five hours. They removed about 40% of one kidney. It’s painful and they keep me pumped full of drugs.

Hang in there Gene. Is that a little more than they expected to do?

Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
Ditto. How long before you will be able to drive home? I'm sure you will have plenty of help once there.
