Well.
This has been a super long day.
We got here about 11:00 am and began the get ready for surgery process.
David finally went into surgery at 4:16 pm.
The surgery took about 4 hours. They removed the kidney, adrenal gland and some lymph nodes. Then they repaired the the vein.
It all went as expected.
The surgeon expects him to stay in the hospital at least 5 days.
We will come back in about 6 weeks for follow up and to see the oncologist and begin the next part of this stupid trip.
It is 10:45 now. I am with him in recovery. It has been a very long day.
We should be in a room soon.
Please pray for pain management and a quick recovery.
I'll update tomorrow. Too tired to even finish this senten
