post-goiter update

Well it's gone, I'm home, and Bob's sleeping, I hope. He was nearly there when I left, had been on his feet, his neck quite petite, a little wrinkly, a half-pound goiter outta there!  All went well, he was breathing on his own even before he reached recovery.  So it's time for some shut-eye, then back to San Francisco tomorrow.  And maybe I'll bring him back with me, if the doc give the go-ahead.

Again, thank you SO MUCH for thoughts and prayers.  Everything went so well, I am in awe.

Now, where's my bed???

As of noon on Tuesday, Bob was home!  As of half an hour later, he was sleeping so very quietly.  Again, thanks for all the comments and support; we both really appreciate it!

Just saw your post pop up on Google Reader, and I'm so glad to hear the surgery is all over and done. A half-pound, yikes!

Hope you get some much-deserved sleep and that Bob does as well, and that tomorrow night you'll both be back in your own bed.

Glad to hear the operation went well. Talk about 'a mill stone around your neck' it seems that goiters are now competing! I wish your husband a rapid recovery. Does he get to eat lots of ice cream?
There may be some up sides to the op.!
Kind regards, Suzy
