David is doing well after 10-1/2 hrs surgery. He's sedated but they've lightened it up already. I'll update my sig with the specs later. I thought I was going to stay all night but i was lucky i got a straight backed chair in the icu room. Yes he's aware I'm here, don't know if he'll remember when the meds wear off later this morning though.
