Another Update-

Hi everyone,

We have good news today.
The first is that Catie Lynn had a bowel movement.
I don't know if any of the rest of you have any experience
with abdominal surgery, but this is a very important step.
One has to have a bowel movement before
they are allowed to have anything by mouth - to eat or drink.  
 It was unexpected, so early, but good news!
She's now having ice chips.  Also, this will allow them to
remove the tube in her nose - which is good news.

The other good news is that the preliminary (local lab)
pathology report is in.  It says that it's Wilms' - either stage 1
or stage 2.  And it is "favorable".
 Both of these are good news.  A second sample was sent to
an out-of-state lab (at the same time this one was sent locally);
so they are waiting for those results (hopefully, to confirm these).
She will have to do chemo and possibly
radiation, but stage 1 or stage 2 is good news.

Catie Lynn took a ride in a wagon - propped up by pillows. 
So she got out of her room.  She had a bit of nausea
today - but they apparently found a good drug for it because
now she has no problem with it.  So this is great.
Jimmy said she was awake pretty much all day -
partly because of the nausea. But she's doing great.
Thanks for all your PRAYERS!
