Hi, Wanted to let everyone know that Leah F had made her transition to the Losing Side. Her surgery was yesterday at Scripps Mercy in San Diego. Her surgery took a bit longer than usual, do to a complication, and she was JUST going into recovery when I got there a little after 4pm, and since I had to be at a 6pm meeting, I didn't get to see her yesterday, but I DID talk to her DH Darryl, and gave him the flowers I'd brought to give her.
I spoke to her this morning, and she said that during the surgery they'd found her spleen was stuck to her stomach, and the reason the surgery took longer was because they had to stop the bleeding of the spleen. But she's doing fine, and has been up to walk 3 times already, just got her first cup of ice chips, and is in excellent spirits! I'm sure she'd welcome a few calls of encouragement. Contact me by email for her room number. Be sure to post notes of encouragement, too!
