She had her operation on Friday afternoon. It took just over 3 hours to do which was longer than we expected.
When the doctors spoke to us afterwards they told us that they had found a lump called a cyst near the top of her tummy which they weren't expecting to find. It was a bit yucky and they had to take it out through a hole they made near her belly button before they could do the rest of the operation.
Because of the cyst having to come out Doris is taking a little bit longer to get better than we thought she would.
Today was the 1st day after her operation and she has a horrid tube down her nose which she hates. She also has a tube going into her hand which is giving her water. She has only been allowed to drink small sips of water since teatime. It has been 40 hours since she last ate anything. She said a prayer tonight to hope for porridge tomorrow. It depends what the doctors say in the morning!
