Tink is out of surgery!

This is JoAnn/Tigger. Natalie's doctor just came and told Alan and me that she is out of surgery. Everything went well-they got the tumor and the adrenal gland out. The surgery took about 4 1/2 hours. Pathology on the tumor will take about a week. We should be able to see her in about 1/2 hour. She will be in ICU overnight and probably here in NIH for about a week. Thank you all for your continued love and prayers. JoAnn

JoAnn Thanks for the update. That is great news, I will continue to pray for Nat and the Pathology report. Tell her that Keith (The Lap-Band Keith) said hang in there and we are thinking of her. Keith
