He's already done! Doctor Wilson just came out to talk to us. Max did excellent. That was friggin fast, but it went real smooth. Doctor Wilson just had to do it laproscopically (spelling might be screwy here). There was enough tissue that he was able to sew the hole shut instead of patching it with gortex. There was some intestine in the hole and that has now been cleared. The doctor said it was as easy as it gets and it was textbook.
Max is coming out of sedation, and we expect to see him in about 30 minutes.
He will have four incisions, one in his belly button, one in his upper chest, and two on his sides. Very small, less than 4mm, so he can't brag about the knife fight he once had :).
We have pictures of inside of Max that shows the hole and it getting sewn shut. So we are 50% in the clear. We will be 100% when he wakes up.
