Starting to close now - 4:30PM

Just got the call from the OR nurse - they are done with the actual resection and are starting to close. That will take about an hour to complete, and then off to recovery.

So if we try to plan (which those who know me at all, it's hard to function without a plan or at least managing expectations):

• Out of OR and into recovery around 5:30PM CST
• Out of recovery (assuming all goes well) and to CT Scan (to ensure no bleeding in the brain) around 7:15 or 7:30PM
• Up to his ICU room around 8PM to get settled
• We'll likely get to see him around 8:15 or 8:30PM

Dad has requested a picture of his "turban" bandages to be posted. I'll see if I can get a shot this evening or wait until he's more alert/awake tomorrow.
