    I heard from him a couple of days ago...
    Brooks is still in the hospital and said he expected about 7-10 days stay - he's in some pain and is waiting on his bowels to wake up.

    Surgery went well, much scar tissue removed, so it looks like it was successful.

    That's the last I heard, Marie:)

    Thanks for the reply
    Craig, thanks for the update. Glad to hear that all seems successful.

    Hope that you are able to get some rest yourself as I am sure your treatments are tough.

    Thinking of you too

    Hey Craig
    Did he just have his adhesions/obstruction taken care of or did he get his reversal too?

    My understanding was that he got the "kink" out his plumbing taken care of and that alot of scar tissue was removed. He went in for the obstruction. Will have to check with him on this.

    I am pretty sure Brooks had his rehearsal some time ago.

    You're Right, Anne
    The radiation and chemo has me fogged in, Anne:)

    You are right about that! Now, that I think about it he was trying to interview for jobs after his reversal some time ago.

    I'm stickin' to my last update on this post - kink removal, prognosis good.

    Thanks for the help, Annie:)
