Robin underwent shoulder surgery yesterday to remedy an AC joint problem. Thankfully, the rotator cuff was not torn (much) and did not need repair. The surgeon removed a whole lotta bone and a whole lotta bursa that was causing impingement anytime he moved his shoulder. Essentially, she gave him an intentional "Type 1 shoulder separation".
The patient is resting comfortably, thanks to heavy-duty drugs. Keep your fingers crossed that the medication keeps the pain at bay! Last night was tough but we have a handle on things ... at least for now, anyway.

A good woman to nurse you when you're hurting is a blessing. God bless you for being at his side. I'm certain he adores you more now than ever. Speedy recovery Robin!
Robin's recovery continues on a great pace ... as long as he can abide by doctor's directives (and Karen's mandates), a full and speedy 100% recovery is anticipated by May.
