    Update on Ryan, this is his wife Marci.  Surgery ended at 5pm he is on the vent for the night.  Some issues with rating of a membrane on the nerves, so had to has a blood patch.  Also on the anterior or front portion of the surgery the vascular surgeon has to stop a bleeding major vessel.  Hopeful things went well and we will be of the breathing machine tonight.   

    He wanted me to update you, as he loves this group of people and your support of Norah Grace. 
    Thank you for the update!  Hoping the recovery goes well.  What has @ryantt asked Norah to make for his recovery meal?

    Now that is quite a statement of what this forum can mean/do. Thank you for the update and we are all pulling for @ryantt.  With you doing the heavy lifting he is a very lucky man.  And we all know the banquets Norah Grace is waiting to cook.

    Im thankful to hear all went well my friend. Wishing you a very speedy recovery. All you need now is a little bit of Miss Norahs cooking instead of hospital food and you will be just fine👍

    Consider kratom if you have pain problems you want to manage.  Much less addictive than opiates and less brain fog.  Legal in Ohio...for now.  It's a tree leaf from Asia, been used for millennia.  It's helped me out through some knee and back pain.
