Hi gang,

I think most of you know my husband is having shoulder surgery on Monday to take care of a bone spur, a torn tendon and torn rotator cuff, and he also has some little cyst-like formations they are going to remove.

Tomorrow we will go get him fitted for his sling and pick up the ice pump thingy and we have several errands to run and grocery shopping to do, so it will be a busy day and I am not sure if I will get to come here and the weekend we are hoping to just spend quietly. So I am posting my prayer request early. Would you please keep us in thoughts and prayers?

I do not know what time the surgery is yet, they said they would let us know the day before, which I do not know if that means Sunday or Friday, before the weekend hits. But I will try to get here to post what time, if I can't, I will at least let Spidey know so she can let you all know for me.

Thank you all so much for listening to me be scared about all of this. And for caring. :love_heart:

((((All in need or not))))
Prayers being said that all went smoothly and prayers being said that the healing time is swift. (((Cat and Family)))

Hi guys,

Thank you so much for all the prayers! Thank you Spideyman for being my messenger!

We are home. They wanted him to spend the night 1) because they got started/finished so late (it was 11 or so before he was in recovery) and 2) because I was alone there until around 8 and did not want to leave to have his meds filled without someone being there, in case, and then pharmacy was closed, so they wanted to be able to give him pain meds.

He had 2 tears, not just the one, so he got anchored in 2 places. The bone spur and scar tissue and everything is cleaned up. The doc said his bones were good and hard, that she really had to pound the anchors, but that was good, that she thinks he will heal up nicely.

We have been home about an hour. He still has 2 nerve block medicine ball thingies attached, and he took some pain meds right before we left the hospital, he is mostly comfortable, so I am heading to the pharmacy right now. Physical therapy starts on Monday.

Thank you so much for all the thoughts and prayers. We all appreciate it so very much. Love you all!!

Thanks for checking in with an update. Glad to hear it all went well and hope that continues through the rest of the healing and PT (pain and tears :smile:).
