I visited Sheila this afternoon. She was in surgery for around 3 hours. The original plan was for a lap RNY but once they got started they decided to do an open RNY and also removed her appendix because it was perforated. She is spending tonight in ICU which I think is routine at Mayo if you have sleep apnea. She seemed to be doing pretty good but was really groggy as expected. I plan on visiting again tomorrow and will try to update tomorrow evening.
