CaliforniaPeggy is doing fine.

The surgeon said everything went well. She had a nerve block and is feeling no pain. She's waiting in the recovery area for a hospital room to become available. Meanwhile, all she wants to do is sleep.


Thank you all for your kind thoughts and words.

Heal well, our dear CaliforniaPeggy!
I'm glad you spurned those bony spurs so you can stretch your left arm any way you want and feel good about it.
