David had surgery yesterday.

David had an artificial disc installed in his neck. Years of misused (gymnastics, martial arts, etc.) has caused a lot of neck problems and we're hoping this will help. He went in at about 9:00 am and we were home by 3:00 pm. The dogs weren't worried, but Quigley didn't get his walk. David's up today. He can't bike or life anything more than 15 lb for six weeks. But, he's feeling OK. They sent him home with a bunch of pain killers but I don't think he'll be using them for long.

We'll be back to normal by next Monday, I think.

Hoping for a speedy recovery for David.

I am sure the pups will be happy to have him back up and running soon!

Thank you...

You said 'up and running.' David doesn't run. The very idea is shocking. (He does ride his bike but can't do it for six weeks. By then, summer is over, almost.

Hope all goes well

The medical field is amazing.
