N's Surgery

He survived! Doesn't seem to be in too terrible much pain, of course we haven't let the pain relievers go completely out of his system yet. We got into the hospital about 10:30 (to pay part of the surgery costs, and do the admission stuff that needs done). Got out of surgery after 2.5 hours (we were told it could take 45 minutes to 3 hours), and got discharged finally about 8:00. There was some debate about keeping him overnight, because of the nausea/vomiting but in the end we all decided that he took getting back on foods a little too quickly (and not having enough in his tummy to go with the pain meds). He did really well over night, no more nausea (that he admitted to anyway, and didn't seem to have any), slept well over night from all appearances. Had a little cuddle time with C this morning who did a good job leaving his face alone (so proud of her for that).

We got a nice souvenir photo of one of his sinuses that was blocked before and after shots -- must say, very impressive looking (both while all icky and after all cleaned out).
