I wish I could get to sleep in. Tomorrow morning at 7 am my dad is having major surgery on his back, so I'll be at the hospital keeping mom company.

I hope your dad's surgery goes well and he will be fine.
Hope your dad's surgery will go smoothly and that the healing will be quick.
So far today I spent the whole morning at the hospital, We just got home. Dad's 1st, 2nd and 3rd vertebrae were far worse than they initially thought so the surgery was longer and they'll be keeping him a few days longer. They had to use a routing-type tool to pry (or sand) apart the bones that were fused together.
Thinking of you -- hoping for wonderful results and quick recovery.
I guess other problems pale beside back troubles. Hope your dad recovers soon-AlleyCat.

Thank you both -- it's very appreciated! He did seem in reasonably good spirits afterwards. On a scale of 1 to 10 he said his pain level was 2, so that's good so far, but they warned him that it's going to get more achy after the drugs wear off. I'll go back and visit tonight.
