I just got off the phone with Mike's wife Rosey.
The surgery was completed this afternoon. Mike is now conscious and talking.
I'm not going to go into the details she explained to me because it's not necessary--suffice it to say they are anticipating a full recovery. She expects they will keep him in ICU through to next Monday as opposed to moving him to another room because staffing levels drop over the weekend.
She also very much appreciates the prayers and well-wishes I shared with her that have been communicated to me.
When I spoke with Mike this morning I had to be careful not to overdo telling the guy how much I appreciate him, because I didn't want to add to his worries by making it sound like I was saying goodbye. And afterward I regretted not doing so, because what if I was?
This really is the best possible news.
If I get any relevant updates, I'll of course share them.
