Surgery Went Well

Hi Everybody,

This is Daniel. I'm just writing a quick note in between feeding James and chasing her to the bath. Kirsten's surgery went well today according to both of her surgeons. The biggest worry for us going in was that they would find cancer in her lymph nodes but we're happy to say they tested negative. So we're breathing a huge sigh of relief. 

Naturally Kirsten is groggy and in a lot of pain from the surgery. But I did a quick test to make sure she was still herself. Background: she is really uncomfortable with impromptu or acapella singing or poetry, especially if any eye contact is involved. So the first thing I asked as she lay there post-op, unable to move her arms or open her eyes all the way, was if she would like me to perform some slam poetry for her. She mumbled: only if they knock me back out first. 

Kirsten was touched by the outpouring of messages and thoughts today from everyone. She won't be able to use her phone for a bit so if you don't hear back from her that's why.

Daniel
