Drew's surgery was successful today! We got to the hospital at 9:30 and he went into surgery at about 11:45. During the surgery they put a rod in his arm which is held in place by two screws. The procedure took about an hour. When I finally got to see drew I found him on the hospital bed and it looked like he was sleeping. When I gave him a kiss he kept his eyes closed and said, "who is that? Why is there a nurse kissing me?" I thought he was kidding but I wasn't sure so I was like, "honey, it's me your wife Brittany." Drew replied with "who?" Then I saw him smirk and I knew he was pulling my leg. He was talking and very alert and drank about four things of apple juice because he was so thirsty. Before the surgery he had a bulky splint thing and sling and now he has an arm stabilizer. He said it is much more comfortable. When he stood up to get dressed he got extremely tired and shaky. He is doing just fine now. I think eating helped. Now he is at home on the couch watching the Lakers-Heat game. Thank you for all of your prayers! Here is a picture of Drew in the hospital.
