Hurry Up and Wait is OVER!!! Yeah DAD!!!!

5:something o'clock pm

The surgeon just came out and said that the surgery was SUCCESS!!!!

He said that Dad did "GREAT" and that it was a "perfect surgery"!!!!

They gave him a unit of blood at the beginning of the operation anticipating loss of blood during the procedure. This will help assist in the recovery process and promote faster healing.

He will stay sedated and come out of anesthesia on his own. We anticipate him back in his room sometime around 7pm.

Expected 4 week recovery for dad and that he is in an outstanding facility to accomplish this. He has been given exceptional care in the approximately 60 days he has been here!

Thanks to everyone for your prayers! Please continue to include Dad AND Mom throughout the process. The goal is to transfer dad to Pleasant Valley Manor in Sedan, KS for long term care to get him strong enough to get to eventually go back home to Bartlesville.
