Michelle had two of her fluid drain tubes removed today and is feeling really good. We went to CheekWood gardens after the doctors visit to relax in the gardens for awhile and then went out to a nice lunch afterwards. She goes in next Thursday to have the other two drain tubes removed. We really appreciate everyones support during this time.

Michelle is doing really well. Thank you for the continued thoughts and prayers.

Michelle came home today. The kids were jumping for joy when mom came home today. She is really doing great, but we need to tell her to please rest and not try to do too much. She is back pretty much to a normal diet and is enjoying the great meals that have been showing up. Thank you all for all of your kindness.

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to let everyone know that Michelle is doing great!She is sore and very tired which can be expected. We are just so happy everything went smoothly. Her surgery was 45 minutes late getting started but she was finished around 3:30pm. She is resting now in her room. The doctor said she will be released on Friday. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. Well I'm back to the hospital after the kids go to bed.

I hope to update the blog Wednesday night after Michelle's surgery. She'll be at Women's Hospital Centennial Medical Center in Nashville. (The number for patient information for friend's and family is (615) 342-1919 pass code 6969.) Her surgery starts at 12pm and we expect for her to be out of surgery around 5pm.

Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers.
