Out of surgery
Kym is out of surgery after 3 hours. I talked to the dr. on the phone. He got pulled into something but wanted me to know she was doing well. No drain needed. He will come down in a little while to "draw me some pictures". But he said it all went perfectly. A waiting room nurse (dr.?) who goes between operating rooms and patient families said she is awake and talking... A bit sore, but in his words you can barely tell she had surgery.
