Name: Hunter
Age: 9
State: Des Moines, IA
Facility: Mercy Medical Center
Hunter was admitted with abdominal pain and had a laproscopic appendectomy. He had wrestled in the state tournament all day not feeling well and finally game to the Emergency Room, only to find out that he would need surgery. Hunter recovered well but then had to travel several hours home after his recovery here at the hospital. He handled the surgery well and worked really hard to get better and make it home.
