Annette had surgery on 10/10/01 Wednesday at 10:00 am. The doctor said that everything went better than smooth in surgery. She was out of surgery at 11:10 am. She has a three inch incision and is in a lot of PAIN!!!! Other than that she is doing fine. Friday at 2:00 pm she came home and still is in a lot of pain. I ask her questions about other things and all she says in pain, pain, and pain. I am making her walk and drinking water and protein shakes and doing her breathing exercises. This is her husband Eric and thank you from Annette for the well wishes.
