Update on George's surgery May 1

I had this message from George's son when I got back to the motel room this evening:

Darrell,

My Dad's surgery today lasted about three hours. The surgeon found and repaired a problem that might have been causing the pain Dad has recently been experiencing. The surgeon did not complete the procedure originally planned. After repairing the newly-discovered problem he felt Dad was not at this time strong enough for the additional, planned work. The surgeon was able to assess the original issue and expects that he can address it in a few months, after Dad has had the chance to regain some strength.

Mom is staying in Cleveland tonight. My brother, Steve, and sister-in-law, Nadine, were also in Cleveland for the surgery. I'm sure Mom will be in contact with you once she gets back home and has the chance to settle in.

I just wanted to fill you in, since his Cub "family" is so important to Dad.

Thanks for the update BD... kinda missed this.. way behind on catching up. Glad to hear that the surgery went well even though what was planned and what occured were two different kettle of fish. Nice to see that the way is paved for possibly and easier path next time around.

Our prayers are with George, Marilyn and family as always (+)
