Thank you for the prompt update, David. My thoughts and prayers are being sent. I'll keep checking back for more updates. Looking forward to when he is out of surgery and in ICU recouping.

Thanks David! I wonder if this is the best sleep he's gotten in a long time!

Meshee: It sounds like it's at least the most sleep he's gotten in a long time. At least there's that.

Best wishes for Duane and his uvula.

I'm sure he will be extabated and groovin' on "goofy juice" in no time.

Thanks, David!

So the cesarean was a success then? Was it a boy or a girl?

WE LOVE YOU PREPPY DUDE!!!
