    I hear that Andrew is out of surgery. They had to remove some bone and replace it with a fabric to facilitate the regrowth. He will not need a cast as the incision was smaller than originally anticipated.

    some of this, a little of that
    Good to hear, since he will not be in a cast does that lower the recovery time?

    I would assume so, but I am nor sure. I have received only texts from the hospital. I haven't spoken to Cindy yet.

    They would only allow 2 people in the waiting area of the hospital. Cindy and Andrew's Dad are there. I am home with his sister.

    He says his leg hurts, as expected. Glad to have him back.

    Thanks for everyones support. I will keep you all informed on his biopsy results and progress.
