will pray ...
No one ever "over-reacts" when a loved one is about to undergo serious and lengthy surgery. It's part of the rhythm of life and most of us have experienced the feeling. Heck, I was a basket case when my son was little and had his tonsils removed!
Now's the time for relief, for thanks, for happiness that all went well. And also some post-operative prayers that recovery is complete and quick. God bless the young man and his family.
