The operation was a success! He ended up receiving a partial gastrectomy. Everyone is relieved. This is fantastic news, and we are all extremely happy!
My girlfriend and I are concerned about leaving so soon to L.A. during his recovery. However, he wants us to be there for his son’s wedding. My girlfriend’s eldest brother his holding his wedding ceremony this Saturday (after many years of delay due to his service in the Army and his recall to the recent war effort). Since he can’t be there, he asked us to go in his stead. My girl’s mom and younger sister will arrive a day after us, and her second eldest brother will be staying behind to watch after their father.
We are relieved…
