Kirk is out of surgery. Things went well! I AM SO RELIEVED!!!!

He is on lots of pain meds as well as a tranquillizer (Ace). I will go and see him this afternoon and probably stay until later this evening. He has to stay overnight because the doctors want to look at him in the morning. He may come home Friday night or possibly Saturday.

I'm pretty sure we're going to have to keep him sedated for the first week (weeks?) at least – he is just too active! His second TPO is scheduled for October 26th. So I guess that means he should be pretty well healed by about Thanksgiving?? Whew. We've got a long way to go…..

I will try to get some pictures to post in this thread sometime soon.

Thanks so much for the good thoughts!! I cannot wait to see my boy!!
