Great news, congrats! 

For a surgeon to tell you that he "thinks he got it all" is very encouraging - they are trained by lawyers to be over cautious.

Sheri (and Willie)
That's the news I have been waiting for, that they were able to get around it, and then replace the "divit".  Always great to see the light in the patient's eyes after the surgery.  Now that the operation is over make sure you catch up on your sleep while he is still in the hospital.  More hard work for you when he first gets home so get some rest now.  Prayers coming from all over the world for you guys.

Thank You. Yes, get some sleep.

That's great news and a fair bit of determination on the doctors part to keep after it all and start reconstructing.

We'll keep praying for a speedy recovery since I already know the hospital doesn't get the speed channel.  8-)

Hello everybody,
Willie is doing so well. We got there this morning and they were moving him into a chair. They let him sit up for awhile and he did really well. They are talking about sending him out of ICU tomorrow to the regular floor for the rest of his stay. He is tube feeding again and he is looking much better. He said to tell everyone hello and let you all know that he is doing fine. Got to go get some sleep have to be there early in the morning. Thanks for your continued support. Love ya all.]
