Update on Dad's surgery...don't eat before looking at this.

My dad had his surgery and is now in full recovery mode! Talking with him this morning just had me laughing...how he looks at life is so positive. When he went "under" they discovered that it was actually worse than they thought, and had to stick pins down through the tops of his toes (gross, I know). To help with some of the missing tissue, they had to add some for him......from a cadaver! With all of this happening, he still had energy for sarcasm by calling himself "dead man walking"...haha. Love you dad.

Keep lifting him up as he will be recovering for at least the next six weeks. Hopefully he can get back to work after Thanksgiving. Good thing his job is pretty flexible since most of it is with the computer.

Here he is one hour after his surgery :)
Yes....those are pins sticking out from his toes. Hopefully he can build some sort of contraption so that he doesn't accidentally stub his toes!
