Grandpa's Surgery

My mom went to Kerrville Monday because my grandma was having surgery on Tuesday.

My grandpa had checkups and a colonoscopy a few months back and they removed some pallups(?) and discovered something in his stomach. It turned out to be a tumor so they scheduled a surgery to remove it before it caused cancer.

The surgery was supposed to be early Tuesday morning but because of setbacks, being overrun with other issues and stuff the surgery didn't take place until 5:30pm.

Mom called me and the surgery went good and he went into recovery. This afternoon I called to see how things went. Last night was bad. He was in a lot of pain because of the bloating/gas that they did because of the type of surgery?

Mom and grandma had stayed at the hospital over the night and they got up and walking to help expell things.

I just got off the phone with mom and he is doing better...but still this was major surgery, even if it was done larscoptically, and he is 81 years old. Grandma is staying with him in the hospital and mom went to their place to sleep.

Good news is that my mom's sick computer got fixed by the marine buddy of my brothers AND he's offered to put the ram into my computer if I buy it.
