Gus is out of Surgery


Kathleen just called at approximately 10:00 pm.  Gus is out of surgery and in the recovery room. He most likely will not go to ICU. They did not remove any of the pancreas or spleen. They did remove about 70 % of the tumor. There was strong evidence that the tumor had responded dramatically to the chemo and radiation in a positive sense. Gus will go directly from recovery to his room. More details will be posted tomorrow.
