Update

Some of you contacted Erik or I yesterday in regards to Nate and his surgery. First of all, even if you don't do anything else, knowing that you care enough about us to be interested in our friend is very touching.

From updates that Melissa did on her Facebook, I know that Nate's surgery went well. She was able to see him on Monday night but the doctors and nurses kept him sedated overnight so she didn't get to talk to him until yesterday. He appears to be doing well, he's in a lot of pain, but hopefully this will be the last of it.

When they originally said they were going up for the surgery they expected to be there through March 3rd. So, they'll be there at least the remainder of the week into next. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers for our friend. I'll keep you updated as I know more. Thank you also for your fundraising ideas!
