update on my son's TCS release surgery

[Guest guest]

Hi all, thanks for the prayers. The operation went well and faster than

expected as he is so thin. Doctor found what he thought he'd find based

on the MRI and was able to safely cut the tether. He said it did seem

to release some tension. So all of that is good news. Zach's recovery

has been mostly uneventful except for the spinal headache he had Monday

afternoon until they got some pain medication into him. He had been

fine without any meds until this headache came on in the course of about

a minute. Not an easy thing for him, but as of Tuesday evening, he is

in good spirits, much more himself, watching movies and talking, and

eating dinner. I just want to thank all of you for expressing your love

and concern for us. It truly is so helpful in this situation in letting

us know we are not alone during this experience. Thank you for praying

and please remember him in your prayers over the next couple weeks as he

is at home recovering.

Thanks!
