Just a quick post to let everyone know Jim’s surgery went well and he is doing great. The doctor told me his gall bladder was very infected and definitely needed to come out. He’s had surprisingly little pain, ate a light lunch and dinner, and was up walking tonight. He will be discharged sometime tomorrow, yeah!
We are both very impressed with the Mayo Clinic. The level of care is excellent, the environment is pleasant, and the staff have been very kind and attentive. We definitely made the right decision in coming here. They even have a beautiful cactus garden in front of the building.
Time for bed, it’s been a long, stressful week. (Probably more for Jim than for me, but hey, since I’m the writer I can complain, too.)
Well, I'm glad you moved on to the Mayo Clinic. Here's wishing Jim a speedy recovery!

We're glad to hear that the surgery went well. I'm sure it was just as stressful for you, Gayle, as it was painful for Jim.
ReplyDeleteSoon you'll have Jim hiking up and down mountains again. Looking forward to seeing you both.
Take care.
GREAT news!!!
