Rhonda was able to update everyone about her stenoises in both juggulars. I am now waiting for her to get out of surgery and to her hospital room for another update. I will post as soon as I hear something from her.

Morphine and percoset made me sick all through the night. Pain is unbelievable. Wish I had good news, but for now I just need rest. Dr. Forrester did my procedure with Dake guiding. I really liked Forrester. When they opened those stents the pain was killer. I think I have some nerve impingement on left. Going back to bed. Wish I was home.
