Surgery

Well, I got up at 4:10 am, I was at my dad's house at 5 am. We left at 5:15. By 6:15 he was in pre op. At 7:45 they took him in for surgery.
They took out his pancreas, his gallbladder (it was enlarged) his spleen ( the dr said it was oozing more then normal.) They took out a "scoop" of small intestine. Both Dr.'s said it was a long and hard surgery. It took about 5 1/2 hours. The Dr. C said "keep your fingers crossed and keep him in your prayers. Dad finally got into ICU about 6:00 pm. We got to go in and see him at 6:30. He was happy to have his family around him. At that point he was very groggy. I got home around 8 pm.
I am tried and want to go to bed.

I will write more tomorrow.
