Doctors removed a liter of fluid from Mom's abdomen today, and she was immediately able to breathe better. They were able to remove the ventilator. She is much improved over the last 24 hours, and they are moving her to a different ICU unit.
Paul and I did not visit today--only Dad. He stayed with her whenever visiting hours allowed, but they are much more restricted on ICU. We do not know when she will be on a regular floor.
The surgeon told us that pathology would take 2-5 days to provide a report on the tumors, so we do not have further information on what kind of cancer we are facing. If they are not able to make a determination themselves, the wait could be longer.
When she is able to receive visitors, we will post that information. Thank you so much for your respect, love, and support.

I continue to pray for you all as you wait and wonder what comes next. I pray for your trust and faith in the Lord who knows all and is worthy of all trust and faith. God bless and give you strength. Donna
Angie, thank you for this update. Please tell Connie that we have been receiving many phone calls from our family members who are praying for her speedy recovery. We spoke to Mike Sunday evening, Mark called last night, and Gene's sister, Mary Helen, called today. Everybody loves her so much and wanted me to pass on their wishes for a full and complete recovery. Also, please tell her that as soon as she feels up to receiving visitors, Gene & I would like to visit her at St. John's or at home in Bartlesville. Take care and give her our love. Thanks again. Phyllis & Gene
Angie, so glad to hear Connie is doing so well. Please let her know that Ed and I (and the whole church) are praying for her. We miss her smile and her witty humor at church! I miss her phone calls in the middle of the day, just to say hi. She's such a fun and loving person, I'm so glad God has gifted all of us with her as a true friend. Please let her know we love her very much.
Again, thank you Angie for this place to check on Connie, I check it first thing in the morning when I get to work and the last thing before I leave. Janie :-)
Thinking & praying for you. Love you lots.
