HI Everyone,

Thank you for all of your well wishes. Andy's surgery went well. It was scheduled at 11:30 but did not start until about 2. Dr.P was a little backed up.

His surgery did last over three hours. Dr.P found a "huge" hernia that needed repair and that made the surgery longer than usual. ANdy is resting well and enjoying his morphine drip. He is planning on going down to the pre-op meeting tomorrow night if he is up to it.

He asked me to thank all of you for the prayers and well wishes, he is very thankful for such a great supportive group!!

Christine,

I'm glad to hear that Andy's surgery went well and that he's resting. I'm sure he's doing lots of laps and enjoying popsicles too! lol Please give him my best and tell him "welcome to the losers' bench!"

AWESOME news! I'm glad Dr. P was able to fix the hernia while she was in there. Hopefully that will prevent any future problems from it.

Send him all our love!

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.

thoughts and prayers to continue!! SO glad that he is doing well - although we had no doubt he would! Great that Dr P was able to take care of his hernia at the same time.
