Two weeks ago Carol took a tumble while walking on the sidewalk. There was a lot of blood and some swelling of the cheek . X ray showed broken bone and CT scan showed a lot more damage . Carol spent hours to learn if restorative surgery was necessary and if it would interfere with having her second cataract surgery before we leave on the extravaganza. The surgery was scheduled for Thursday and it wasn’t until midday Wednesday that she had all the information she needed.
I’m writing this in the preop area while we wait for the Anesthesiologist and surgeon to come in for the preoperative talk . l’m writing this using the pen on my tablet for the first time. it reads my handwriting better than most people. I won’t post this until I have had a chance to write about the outcome.

several hours later: Surgery took an hour less than projected because it went better than expected. By 8:45 she was out of recovery and in her room for the night. I spent some time with her and left her to sleep off the drugs from surgery.
I doubt I’ll post about this again.
So glad to hear that surgery went well.
Sending love and hugs and peayers.
