All's well

We're home. Christopher is fine and awake and much less groggy than he was last night. He says his shoulder is a little sore -- though he's not sure if that's from the surgery or from the heavy cryo-thingy that they have on his shoulder circulating ice water to keep the swelling down.

The surgery went well -- they managed to do it all arthroscopically, which will mean a lot less recovery time. Things, of course, didn't happen when they were supposed to -- that's America for you. We arrived at 12:30 p.m. and he didn't go in for surgery until 4 and we didn't come home until 10 or so. (Happily, I had a big fat Harry Potter to read while I was waiting. And a Theodosia, for when I finished Harry.)

Let's see... the stitches are small and he'll be able to shower on Thursday. Thank Heavens that we got the a/c in recently! (It's going to be 90 degrees tomorrow!)

Grampy Jack and May had a very good time -- she didn't fuss or cry at all, he says. They ate roast beef sandwiches for dinner and Grampy taught May her shapes.

More updates as we continue.
