Surgery update

Ben's surgery on Friday went well. They removed all of the cancerous kidney as well as a sick gall bladder. Pathology tests next week should help determine the all-clear on cancer. He is still a little groggy today but has been walking very slowing around the hospital hallways. He thanks everyone for their well-wishing comments and emails.

Ben, hope you are feeling fabulous soon!

Perfect excuse to eat lots of Amy's ice cream once he's feeling better. No better cure this time of year unless its a Casey's New Orleans Sno Ball (52nd & Airport).

Good luck, Ben.

So my grandfather had kidney cancer and they pulled all if it out, including the kidney, with no chemo or radiation. If you are going to have cancer, it is the best place to have it! IMO. Anyway, heal quickly and get back to playing Tennis.

thanks, Jackie. Will continue to keep him in my thoughts and prayers.
