It’s been a long day but dad’s surgery went well. Took the Dr. a bit longer than normal but it went as well as it could. Dad opted to get the spinal anesthesia, it’s easier to recoup from it than the standard IV. We left at about 230 to beat traffic, dad was still in the recovery room waiting for a room in the hospital to free up. He’ll be on his feet tomorrow, which is a lot sooner than I ever thought. I expect him to come home on saturday, sunday by the latest.
