The doctor just came out to tell me that Larry got through the surgery well. While the next few hrs. are still critical, I'm so relieved that I didn't lose him. I'll update more later since I can't see him for another half an hour or so.
Thanks for everyone's thoughts and prayers. Now onward to recovery....the hard part.
Jim:
Glad to hear the surgery went well for Larry. Hugs
leatherman:
the doctors all said the surgery went extremely well with zero issues. I got to see Larry for about 15 mins. ugh. so many tubes and wires! They're warming him up still after the surgery, so he was still unconscious and intubated. It's 230 pm here now, so I'm going to skip the 4-6 visiting hours, go home, feed the dogs, maybe cry a little more, and then go back for the 8-9pm visiting hours and see how he's doing.
I had my mom, best friend and his mom with me waiting this morning. By the time we got to see Larry though my mom and friend had to go to their own appts. So I'm going to grab my mom on the way back tonight so she can see her son-in-law is still in the land of the living. Hopefully Larry's mom is going to come out from Arizona in a few weeks to stay with us for a while.
Right now, I've got to put my phone on the charger! It's been eating up the power calling Larry's mom, and texting all our scattered friends and family, along with his co-workers (and adding some posts here) these past two or three busy days.
I know Larry isn't out of the woods now by any stretch; but I so relieved I haven't lost my third husband. While I lost Randy and Jim after 10 years each, I've been doing really well with this husband. :D We've had this little set back; but I've kept him alive 12 years so far, so I'm really trying hard to get a few more years out of this husband. LOL <3
Jim:
Excellent to hear that it went well with zero issues.
There must have been some relief hearing the result of the surgery but obviously, you are still worried sick, but do try to look after yourself and get some rest. Sending you good thoughts and wishes.

If it had been for something less serious, I would have suggested getting a makeup artist to age you by 10 years so that when he wakes up you can tell him it's 2034 and Trump's clone is now running the country.
