Mama came out of recovery last night at 5:30 pm. She was doing well with big smiles and ready to celebrate being up and over the hill. :o) The nurses told her the good news but she didn’t quite understand what they were saying until Daddy explained it to her again and then she was really surprised and thankful for the good news so far. 
As we expected, Mama struggled a bit coming off the anesthesia. She had apnea from some of the narcotic pain drugs which prevented her from coming out of recovery right away.  This morning she was finally able to keep a whole meal down; she was so hungry! She is doing really well now; her pain level has become manageable and the surgeon said she is healing wonderfully. Actually, we are surprised; we expect to go home soon within the next few hours possibly! 
Mama asked me to especially thank you all for prayers. They were an immense blessing to her!
