I just got a call from Debbie. Colin did well in the surgery. It's anticipated that he'll be in the hospital for 11 days to 2 weeks. A full recovery is expected.

Colin is such a positive personality that I'm sure he will do well. This is all good news.

Thanks for all the support, he doing well. The surgery accomplished everything it was supposed to. Dad said his back is no longer bothering him but the area they went in through to perform the surgery is a bit painful. They moved him out of icu and into a regular room. He saw a physical therapist and was on his feet for a short time with some suppot.

Like I said in the Les thread, I step away from the forum for a little over a week, and come back to all this. I'm glad Colin is on the mend.
