Now For Some Good News: Amy Mickelson Doing Well After Surgery
Phil Mickelson posted news on his website that his wife, Amy, is doing well after surgery to remove cancerous tissue in her breast.
Golf Channel has a write up summarizing the statement and other facts:
"The best news so far is that the cancer has not spread to the lymph nodes, which improves our chances of beating this in the short and long term," Phil Mickelson wrote in a posting on July 16. "We're awaiting one test result that will influence Amy's treatment plan. The waiting and wondering sometimes can be the most difficult part but she has a very positive attitude and has handled all of this with her usual grace. I'm so proud of her."
Amy Mickelson reportedly underwent surgery July 1 at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.
"The kids were in Houston all week and I know that helped speed up her emotional recovery," Mickelson wrote of his wife. "They bring her endless joy. We could not have done this without the help of our family and friends. We appreciate everything they have done and continue to do every day. I don't know what we would do without them."
Our continued best to Amy, Phil, and the Mickelson family during this time of trial with both Amy and Phil's mom, Mary, battling cancer.

I’m no Gregory House – and I didn’t stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night – does anybody know why they waited 5 weeks to do this surgery ?
"this ball will fit in that fairway"
Maybe they were waiting biopsy results? I’m like you, though – very little knowledge of this.
