Cll the unexpected-surgery

Well surgery was 3.5 hrs. Dr. Said he did well and went as expected. There was about 2 liters of blood in his abdomen but little lost during surgery. Had to take an inch or so of the pancreatic tail because it was too involved with the spleen. I haven’t seen him yet but hopefully soon. Thanks for the prayers.

I am glad it went well, hope the horribleness of needing the op has gone, and that you can both recover from the ordeal. Take care and be gentle with yourself xxx

May the healing begin 🙏 Sally
