Hernia Surgery
We went to Good Samaritan Hospital in Corvallis this morning at 7AM. Curt went in for surgery before 10 and I talked to Dr. Hudson about 11:20 afterwards. He said everything went well. There was a hole about 3 or 4 inches in diameter, and they covered it with mesh through 4 small incisions. He also looked around inside and didn't see anything. We were home about 1:30. I went to get some pain medicine for him, and he has been resting. He can take off the bandages and take a shower on the last day of the year. He is not supposed to drive for about a week and gradually go back to a normal diet and activities. He has a followup appointment next Tuesday with Dr. Hudson. We are writing an e-mail to Dr. Gross about what to do for his eye.
