Bob Wolkwitz- Update

Thank you all for your kind wishes and emails. I am happy to report that Bob is doing well and his doctors are very pleased with how the surgery went. Hopefully we will be back home early next week.
His next surgery, in four to six weeks requiring bone grafting, will be done at Yale New Haven Hospital.

Surgery Update

It was a long day here in Columbus. At 5:18 PM, after 8+ hours, Bob successfully came out of surgery and into ICU where he is being monitored closely. He will remain under sedation until tomorrow morning.

All your prayers have worked thus far but the next 48 hours are critical, so please continue to keep Bob in you thoughts.

Bob's Surgery

In good spirits, at 8:45 this morning Bob went into surgery. The operation is scheduled to last until about 6 PM. I just received a call from the head surgical nurse advising me that all is well and going as planned.
