Surgery Phase I Complete!

Dr. Goldsmith just updated us: the frontal surgery is complete. It was more complex than expected but Dad did great. The lower back portion went very well as expected; the upper back was very compressed with some "bizarre angles," but he was able to get a cage (rods, etc.) in there to open things up. 
Phase II of the surgery will begin after lunchtime. So far, so great!!
