    My prayers are up for you that your surgery went well earlier today, and that God will be with you as you are now recovering and healing.

    I had brain surgery 6 months ago, and my insurance company approved a 2-day stay at first. Your neurosurgeon needs to report to the insurance company that he cannot release you until your pain has been managed. Mine got me 3 extra days. Good luck.
