After I got a call from one of Mom's friends this afternoon, asking for an update regarding Mom's condition, I figured I should update everyone, eh?

At this stage post-operation, Mom is doing quite well. She is in pain, but that is expected. The room is pretty nice and large; there is even a DVD player (thankfully for Little Bear, who is the one mostly at the hospital -- I don't get paid time off for family health things).

There really isn't much else to say, I think. I will update as there is information -- hopefully she will be back home before too long, and will be able to update you all herself!
