Surgery is over and All IS WELL

I promised all would be well and I was right! Dr. H., Mom (Anne), DeAnn, Uncle Mike all gathered in the family conference room. He was very pleased with every aspect of the surgery. Bladder and prostate removed and all looked fine, couldn't feel any tumor in the bladder. Nerve sparring procedure went very well, he was totally pleased with that aspect of the surgery. Totally clean margins and all lymph nodes urethrae and everything are all totally negative for any sign of cancer. The construction of the neo bladder went just as expected with no complications or problems at all. Doug did fine throughout the surgery, no drop in blood pressure, did not receive any blood and all his vital signs were good through the entire 4.5 hour surgery. He will be in recovery for the next 2 -3 hours.

We are so grateful for all your well wishes and prayers and KNOW that God heard them and they worked! We are so grateful and feel so blessed to have had Dr. H for this surgery I can't tell you how comforted and blessed we feel to be in his skilled, competent hands. Not only is he a gifted surgeon but an absolute prince of a man, so kind and caring. Thank you Dr. H!
