Surgery went well. Won't know for a while if they got all the cancerous tissue out. He got through the night very well -- slept better than I did. The surgeon did give him a prescription for oxycodone for pain -- but so far -- no pain so he has bot taken any pills. He'll have a nice scar on his arm -- the incision is about 2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. The stitches should come out on the 14th. In the mean time he isn't to lift anything heavier than 10 pounds.
Thanks everyone for the prayers.
