Surgery was very successful!!  We received updates throughout the morning and at about 12:45 +/- we received the word that she was done.  This was earlier than planned because things went so well.  Thank you, God.

Michelle looks great.  I got to see her at about 4:30 - although she is unable to talk because of breathing tubes, she opened her eyes about half way and she knows we are here by her side.

Thank you so much for all your prayers!  There's much more recuperation ahead, but it's great news so far.
