Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy- Good Bye Flynny We will miss you

First, his breathing tube is out and he is doing good.

Liver Mass - the confusion in the his scan was the gall bladder is on wrong side due to previous liver lobectomy. So this mass was in quadrate lobe, not right central as they thought. Removed fine, size of fist, looks cystic. he thinks might be adenoma and it definitely needed to come out. Maybe low grade tumour but he described it as definitely NOT a nasty gnarly tumour (his words). Smaller nodule seen as per previuos pet hospital scans, less than golf ball size and biopsied. He has bled little, but he is having plasma to help with clotting as livers can be oozy, but post op albumin and packed cell volumes show he is doing good.

Adrenal - no sign of pheo recurrence anywhere. remaining adrenal has nodule, he thinks it is calcium deposit, does not look cancerous so he did not even biopsy as he did not want to upset BP.

Kidney and bowel biopsied and they look fine, he said bowel looked normal.

Abdominal node seen on previuos scans not grown, previous biopsy had shown liver tissue. he has removed it. no other lymph node enlargement.

He has a drain as he went through diaphragm for easy resection.

BP stable throughout around 100ish.

Food from tomorrow.

Lipoma they thought on ultrasound behind kidney not visible, he thinks it was a fat pad in that area.

think that is it, posting this fast as I have lost it TWICE, sorry for delay

I am VERY happy with this news, going to see him in an hour or so. My friend is home, she has just gone out to get thai so I will go straight after dinner as I need to eat and unsurprisingly feel like eating now!!

So glad I saw this before heading to bed. This is all VERY VERY good!! Trish! I'm so happy!!! HUGS

Great that the bowel looked normal, that is a good sign too.

So, can you ask him if he thinks we are done with surgeries now? Flynn is setting a bit of a record here with all the ones he's had! Him and you both ready to live out a normal life without these November issues. :)

Go, enjoy dinner! Visit Flynn-man.
Catch up with ya laters
Hugs and Love! We're happy!!

Trish!! I'm still here!! This all sounds like such good news!! Yay Flynn!! You really did the right thing!! Everything sounds so positive. I am so happy for you and Flynn!! Your parents must be so happy to hear this great report!
Will be looking forward to hearing about how Flynn is tomorrow. Wishing you a good night...you must feel so relieved!! Have a nice supper and a glass of wine too!!

So glad to see this report. I am off to bed now. Have a nice dinner and give Flynny boy our love. I'll check on both of you in the morning before work. Xxxxx

Awesome news Trish! Get some rest now.

I am feeling SO much better! A bit of dinner and that good news has really helped! Wouldn't it just be fantastic if this was not cancer after all, we get a handle on his bowel and kidney issues with the biopsies and get him on optimum treatment.

His surgeon said that his insides were pretty pristine, only a couple of small adhesions which he said considering his past history shows what an excellent surgeon he had previously. To get to the liver he puts a hole in the diaphragm for easier access, he looked to see where they did this last time and there is no scar so he presumes that his last surgeon did not do that which goes to show how good he was. This hole has been sewn up and they put a drain in for a day or so, they xray them postop to make sure there is no air or any lung problems and all good... he also said for this xray they made sure to get his tummy and he said he is absolutely 100% sure there is no swab or instrument left inside of Flynny this time, he also just about quadruple counted everything. :D I like this guy

I have rung the nurses and can go visit him at 9pm, they said he is doing great right now, but want to see him with my own eyes. I hope he forgives me for leaving him there. Will post again after I see him, going soon.

Oh Trish, what a wonderful report!! I am so happy and relieved! Good boy Flynn, good boy!! Nice that they were extra careful with the swab count. :)

You should be there visiting your boy about now, I will be looking forward to that report. I had a bit of a snooze on the couch and off to bed I go now. I will check in when I get up for work. Again, I am so happy with this positive news. I can't wait to hear how he is doing. Now we can focus on recovery. ;)

Love and hugs,
Tina and Jasper xo

So pleased for you both. Am here waiting for the latest news xxxx

Fantastic news I like that surgeon. By now you should be at the hospital seeing the lovely Flynn give him gentle cuddles from me and I,ll await your update x

Hoping you ain't getting stink eye. Boyce would never talk to me when he came home from surgeries, he would ignore me for at least a day!

You must be so relieved as must Mum and Dad. Was encouraging to hear his insides look so good xxx
