Hello Everyone,
This is Berrit posting a quick note for my Dad.
My Dad's surgery went well, and he is recovering at the Foothills hospital. Surgery was scheduled for 7:30am this morning but started a little late (the hospital was very busy) at 8:30am. The surgery took longer than expected, but his doctor (Dr. Hu) said everything went well and that he will be in to check on my Dad first thing tomorrow morning. Needless to say, my Dad is in a lot of pain and feels quite groggy and tired. His throat is extremely sore because he had to have a breathing tube down his throat during surgery. He did make a few jokes with my Mom and I at the hospital though and was awake and talking to us before I left around 8:00pm. Hopefully he will get a good sleep tonight and will be feeling much better tomorrow.
Will post again as soon as there is more news!
Most of you know that I have been struggling with a bad back (handicap excuse).After exhausting all other options I have decided to proceed with Spinal Fusion Surgery on November 24th at the Foothills Hospital. In order to keep everyone informed as to my progress and to give me something to do through the long boring recovery I am going to write about my experience. I look forward to hearing from everyone but mostly I look forward to being able to golf,hopefully within 4-6 months.

I'm glad the surgery went well and hope the recovery goes smoothly!
On a side note: go Stamps! Way to bring home the cup.
Kurt,
Glad to hear the surgery went well. Get the back in shape so we can take money off Hammer and Soupy. They think we may be "easy pickings" now but I reminded them that your "new" handicap has yet to be negotiated. When you get mobile you should come to hockey and coach us for the last two minutes of the game and the next two hours over beer and wings.

Kurt, hope you are soon back on your feet on swinging your clubs on the links!

Dear Cousin
We are so glad to hear the surgery went well. We hope the recovery goes smoothly. Then you most come to Denmark on convalescence. Remember to take a Gajol is good to painkilling :)
Think of you
Hugs Tina
