Angel Update: Ken had his surgery this morning and came through it with flying colors. I was just speaking with him on the phone and he is alert and doing well. His only complaint is a sore throat and it hurts when he coughs. He has been enjoying those wonderful ice chips that we all loved so much and got some throat lozenges for a special treat! I was unable to be with Ken today, because I was in another hospital with our oldest son, who was recovering from viral meningitis (he is doing fine now, by the way). My sister stood in for me at the hospital and was amazed that he was so wide awake and alert right after he got out of recovery and to his room. I would like to be the first to welcome Ken, my DH, to the slim side. I can't wait for him to big a BIG LOSER in the AMOS tradition. Congratulations sweetheart .... it only gets better from here!
