The Late Update

Well--he got caught by a nurse. Turns out patients aren't supposed to use the terminals in the room. He got permission from his surgeon, but the nurse is the one who would get in trouble if something happened, so she sneakily shut down the computer when she left. He was sorry he couldn't post from his room, but was glad that we could for him. I can only reiterate what Dani said--he's in great spirits. He was joking with the nurses, and insisted that I take a few photos to document the process. There are a few below--you can click on them to make them larger. We'll post progress reports tomorrow as often as possible--or as soon as news comes through and we can get internet access. It should be noted that a request was made: in lieu of flowers, if someone wanted to start a collection to buy a fine bottle of scotch, that might help him heal all the faster. And at the rate that he drinks, it's a guarantee that he'll be around to share it with everybody for a good, long time.
