The surgery took a bit longer than they expected (4 1/2 hrs) and we just got up to our room so I apologize for the delay. Everything went well and Dr. Rollins was really pleased with the way things went. He couldn't tell what had caused the nissen to herniate again because all of the stitches in the diaphragm were still intact. He was able to put the stomach in the proper place again and he put in a patch this time to strengthen the diaphragm and hopefully prevent any further problems. He redid the nissen anyway and feels like she will have plenty of room for food and liquid to empty into her stomach as soon as she can eat again, which will probably be in 2-3 days. Thank you again for all of your prayers which sustain us each day.
