KatieB Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 I haven't heard any updates on Alan but I will keep you updated when I do. I've been thinking about him non stop and I am hoping and praying his surgery is a success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieB Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 From George Alan Rader Hi you guys, so yesterday I had a wedge resection to repair a hole in my left lung. He did several while in there..today, it is very painful, haven't even seen the incision, don't want to not yet anyway. The problem was a "bleb" .a sort of weak spot. All it takes to blow them out is super heavy breathing or big coughing spell. It's not related to cancer at all but the surgery is the same in this case. So, you guys will have to put up with me and my senseless ramblings and blibber blabber for a while longer. Thank god this is behind me and I can begin healing. THANK YOU guys for the kind thoughts. I'll be back up and running well maybe not running in no time. I definitely have abused these lungs for a long time. You guys are the best people I know .

curlysue50 Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 So glad the surgery part is over for you Alan! Now for the healing and recovery. Be sure to get your rest and let others do for you. Don't look at the incision until you have to. There are no medals awarded for that. It's okay to just focus on healing! Positive thoughts and prayers. Susan Sent from my SCH-I405 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dianew Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Alan - so sorry about the miserable surgery, but the "it's not related to cancer at all" is always a good thing. Take care of yourself, and don't rush it - you'll be back to normal soon. Diane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
