Surgery Update-MaryJo Rak

Hi All ! Just a quick status on MaryJo's surgery. She went in this morning (1/21) at 9am and I just heard from her husband Tom that everything went well and she is in Recovery. They are getting ready to get the breathing tube out and anticipate she'll be in her room this afternoon. So Glad all is going well ! I'll keep you all posted!!!! Hugs, Carla

Thanks for letting us know -- I've been thinking and praying for her today. Glad to know things went well. God Bless, Kathy Bilodeau Lap RNY 12/3/03

I'm so glad to hear that MaryJo is doing well. Also, so happy for her. Thanks Carla for keeping us updated.

Update: Wed evening 1/21 - Heard from Tom that MaryJo was in her room by 6:30 tonight. She was quite groggy but in great spirits. The nurses were about to take her for her first stroll around 8pm. She's doing great so far. I plan on visiting her tomorrow afternoon and will bring her all your well wishes! Good Night everyone! Hugs, Carla
