Default Big Bear Jeff is Out of Surgery!!!

The Bear is officially on the Losers' Bench! I just got a call from Dave, Jeff's partner - Jeff is out of surgery and doing well. The doctor told Dave that everything went smoothly, and Dave will be seeing Jeff as soon as Jeff is out of the recovery room. Wooo hooo!

If I hear anything more from Dave, I will post it on this thread. Dave also may be posting news here himself, once he gets to a computer.

Please keep Jeff and Dave in your thoughts and prayers today.

Default Best wishes...

Best wishes to Jeff for a complication-free recovery, and to David in dealing with the upcoming week or so of not-very-pleasantness... OK, hell week.
