I just spoke to Steve. It's Friday late afternoon, he had the surgery Thursday noon. He's still in quite a lot of discomfort, but did not seem in distress when we spoke. Interoperative discography showed the 3rd disc to be wide open, so he's one of the few people I know who got more discs than expected.

He sounded good... I hope he turns that corner soon.

More as I hear it.
