8" incision in the side of his leg, a "window" cut into his femur to remove a 3" long tumor from inside of the bone, and then filled with a crystalline calcium substance that the body is supposed to convert to bone. They seem to have gotten a fair handle on the pain issue for now with a nerve block and meds. He has been up walking a few times already with a limitation on the weight he can put on that leg.

Other than last night after the surgery, we have yet to talk to the doctor but it is sounding like he MIGHT be turned loose tomorrow. Even if he does we will likely stick around an extra day just to be on the safe side. Not sure how long it will take to find out whether or not the tumor was benign.

That's all I know at this time.
