An early morning (5:00 am) alarm and off we went to Kaiser in Oakland. From 5:45 to 8:00 is with with her and off she went to surgery. I got a call from one of Diane's surgeons a little while ago. He said they took out the tissue in her mouth as expected and did NOT have to split open her jaw! They did a frozen biopsy of some tissue in the back of her tounge and no cancer was found. So far so good, as he put it, and the next part of the surgery is her neck dissection where they take out the lymph nodes on the left side of her neck.
I will keep you up to date as I find out more, hopefully late this afternoon.
