Beth Surgery Update - 9:00pm EST

The surgery is done and Beth is now in her room sleeping. They finished around an hour ago. Beth is alert and in good spirits. She is sore but drugged up pretty well. Beth drugged up on any sort of pain killers is some good comedy.

Dr Stallnecker came out and talked with me for a few minutes. He said the surgery went well for the most part. He did say though he had trouble with the right breast. He couldn't get enough blood flow to that area and it was concerning him. He is going to monitor it, but if it doesn't improve he will have to go in and remove it and replace it with an implant.

She will be in the hospital for at least 4 days. If she has to have another surgery her stay could be upwards to a week.

This hospital is unbelievable. Everything is so new and clean. The rooms are nice and big and the nurses are great. Top notch hospital. Torrance Memorial you should be ashamed of yourself.

I didn't even know this was coming up! I second that I hope nothing needs to be redone. Hope the hospital stay isn't too bad. Love you Beth! Marci

I didn't realize the reconstruction surgery was so soon. I hope everything continues on a good course: no more surgery and fast healing for summer fun.

Best wishes to all of you!

Can't wait to talk to you about this. I think I called the day after your surgery and left a message on your home phone. Then I realized that not only do you not check or listen to your messages but you would probably be in the hospital recovering for days and wouldn't coherently be able to talk to me about your new fabulous Scarlett Johansson's for awhile! I am so glad you are well and it is done. I love you as always. Rach

Alan, thanks for the updates. We miss you guys so much.

Make certain to call it probably the best alternative to putlockers as it lets you watch almost boundless online films for nothing. You are ready when you pursue an account on the site. The site has an assortment of more than 70000 motion pictures and TV shows which is updated on a regular basis to stay up with the latest with anything which is a film or a TV appear. I personally utilize this site for watching TV shows and films as it offers without ad navigation and continuous help. On the homepage, you can discover segments, for example, the latest added, top of the line, new releases, year, and alphabet for arranging content in an altered manner. In the event that arranging alternatives sometimes fall short for you well, proceed with the search. Simply type in the name of the film you're searching for, and you're there.
