Surgery is Over

Chris finished his surgery around 4 PM. He is doing fine. Instead of Chris going to the ICU first, he just went straight to recovery. He did have to have some insulin, but that makes sense because we were fooling with the pancreas. He did have a large ulcer too, we weren't quite sure where it was at, but it was removed during the surgery. He is doing fine and will be home in about a week. Thanks again for everything.

That's great news that he bypassed ICU, or at least I took that as a big positive. And, to be home in a week from such serious surgery is surely a blessing, too. Whew...so glad it's over for him and for all of you.

I was waiting to hear he had extra pancreas like he had extra intestine the first time around :-).
We're glad everything went well and hope that you send one of the kids' gameboys/DS along with him to keep him busy while he recovers!
