JEFF'S 1ST SURGERY

I'm keeping my parents apprised on Jeff's surgery so I hope Jeff & Christa don't mind that I posted these. I couldn't get this picture to rotate but you can see that the kidney on the bottom has all the stones on the bottom. The picture of the kidney on the top is after surgery!  YAY, it's clean!
I couldn't get this one to rotate either but these are the stones inside the kidney as they are being removed! Traci said these are the BIGGEST she's ever seen! Several weeks ago when Jeff had his 1st few Dr. visits the Dr. said there could be hundreds and maybe even thousands of stones.  There were over two hundred! Less than initially thought but they were so big that the size of them took up a lot of the space. Hence, the larger estimation!!
Jeff kept some of them as a memento! WOW, Can you imagine passing even one of these!! I'm so grateful to all of you who have kept Jeff in your prayers. His 2nd surgery is on the 25th. It will be more intense so please continue to do so.
