Hi all this is Karin DS's Husband reporting on her procedure today. We arrived at the hospital at 10.30 am this morning, She had to wait quite some time before going to the pre op.  She was finally taken to theatre by 3.05 pm. I didn't see her again until 9.00 pm this evening. For some reason they were very slow
getting through all the patients. It's now 11.30 pm Australia time and I have just arrived home, Karin was insistant that I do this post as soon as I arrived home.

The report so far is everything went well and the doctor told her in recovery that it was all beuatiful, as if any sergery can be decribed as that is beyond me. She is doing fine but in quite a bit of pain.

I will find out more tomorrow, if there is anything to report I will do so tomorrow night.

Regards to all Linus. 

Cheers from Karin (in Oz)

Hi Linus, when a doctor says "beautiful" that's a good thing...lol...kinda like being a pig in **** for a surgeon so to speak. I hope Karin does well and gets home soon. DS is a wonderful thing and I know of many who have no problems ever. Take care ....Jeff
