Internet issues

The internet just came back up here at MD Anderson, 10 minutes after Mark was wheeled into PACU. He was in surgery over 13 hours, but is okay. Everything went well, just as the surgeons planned. He also was extubated (for you non-medical types, that means he is breathing on his own, off the machine). Instead of ICU, he is doing well enough to stay in PACU overnight. I don't know if I'll be able to post again until tomorrow, but it looks like things are going well.

What a relief! I'm glad to hear Mark is breathing on his own. 13 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!! You both must be exhausted. Rest. If y'all are still in Houston in two weeks, I'll come visit...or stay if you need me to. Love y'all.
