I've just spoken to Dr Z who tells me that Kendall came through the procedure brilliantly. They have doubled the size of his airway which should mean that his breathing will be a lot better and he is now in recovery.

He will stay in hospital overnight but we must stay in Boston until Monday, when he will be checked by Dr Z. Kendall is always talking about looking at Old Ironsides in the harbour. This might be a good opportunity.
