2nd Update

John is still in the intensive care unit. The doctors are concerned about his severe sleep apnea. As far as the surgery, the doctors say John is doing great. Everything is progressing nicely. Because of the anesthesia, his intestines are still asleep. When they wake up they will let him have liquids. He hasn’t had anything to eat or drink since last Thursday night. He is feeling lousy and can’t wait to come home. Hopefully Wednesday they will move him to another room, which means one more step to coming home.
John will have another CAT Scan in October to check on the liver. In November (or sooner) he will have another Octreoscan. The doctors will continue to monitor him closely.
I would like to thank everyone for love shown & prayers offered in John's behalf.
