BethAnne made it through the surgery without loosing her last remaining kidney and all is well. She's now on the road to recovery and doing very well.

Surgery was 4.5 hours (or so) beginning Friday morning around 7:30am. I didn't get to see her until around 5pm that night. It made for a very long and stressful day. She spent the weekend in ICU and is expected to be moved to a regular room some time today. They were supposed to move her yesterday but they didn't have any open beds. :huh:

She actually got up this morning and walked around the ICU for a couple of minutes which is a far cry from what she could do yesterday so we're all hoping she'll be able to come home around Wednesday.

We've still got 6-8 weeks of recovery once she gets home but I'm just glad the worst of it's over and she's doing well.

Thank you all for your prayers and support it has helped greatly.

Stick a fork in me! I'm done! I'm slidding in with both feet, a cold beer in one hand, a hot blonde on the other and yelling "YeeHaw! What a ride!"

I, for one, am ecstatic that the news is just getting better and better!
