Surgery 36 and Notes from Rounds

According to Dr. Duke, Saturday evening's surgery went well. After Saturday morning's scare we were anxious to hear Dr. Duke's update, and thankfully surgery turned out being very routine.

The Benefit Dinner Dance on Saturday night was perfect! I am stunned at how many people came and supported dad. I know that El Campo has done amazing things before, and maybe I shouldn't be shocked it was so successful, but it was far beyond what I imagined. I cannot thank you all enough.


Now for the daily Round's Update:

Rounds went well this morning. Dad has bounced back incredibly quickly, and is already back to where he was before Saturday's bleeding scare. He's making urine and most all of his other functions are picking up as well. One place we are directing our prayers to right now, is for dad to wake up! They have stopped the pain medication drip (even though he does get some pain medicine through patches), and we would love to see him awake. In the past week or so dad has woken up very little (possibly not at all). We've seen first hand just how much all of your prayers have worked, so we're calling on all of you to pray specifically for him to wake up.
