Just got back from USC, everything went well. The operation took about 5 hours, tons of waiting. The doc said that everything went well, nothing other than the norm, they are testing the old lungs to see what was the problem at hand. IT was just a long stressful day, left at noon to go down there and got home around 5:00. Looking forward to her getting her life back for once.
