Surgery was Successful!

Surgery for brother Rod's brain cancer is over. The entire tumor was removed!!!!!! Thanks be to God.
Thanks to all for prayers and well-wishes. See http://www.rodshealy.blogspot.com/ for more details and comments. By the way, here's the link for the weekly column Rod wrote for his papers just hours before his surgery: http://doingthefirst.blogspot.com/2008/08/random-thoughts-from-luckiest-man-on.html. On the picture below is Dr. Sunil Patel, the excellent MUSC surgeon who "got a piece of Rod's brain." He is shown in the waiting room after surgery, explaining results to family and friends.
