It's a Hook! (aka Shark Girl Lives!)

Dr. Pou just came to talk to us and it really is the best possible situation given the circumstances. The pathology from the margins was negative for tumor so Stephanie has enough of her tongue left that the rehab should be much easier on her. This also probably means she gets to be Shark Girl which will make her WAY excited. They are working on sewing her up now and finishing the flap. This is truly a huge answer to prayer, thanks to all of you that have been today. I will probably still be the sole author or a few more days at least, so don't get too tired of me yet.

Edit: I was so excited I forgot to change the font and color.

Warner and Stephanie,
This really is the best way to keep up! Your mother, through Aunt Joan, is not nearly as informative. I am so glad everything is going so well and will continue to pray. Please tell Steph we really love her as soon as possible and are so pleased that she is doing so well, not that we ever doubted her at all,at all.
Love to you both - all -
Aunt Beth and Uncle Pete
