Quickie update on my Dad
So – my dad had his triple by-pass surgery on Tuesday. Mary, Mom, Dan, and I waited for about 8 hours. We saw dad in the ICU just for a moment on Tuesday. His pressures did not stabilize until 2 a.m. and then they finally could take the breathing tube out. Phew! Dr. Doty said my dad did great and that things went well. So many doctors comment on how young my dad is (69) and how healthy he is. Guess they’ve seen older and those in worse health. There are so many miracles that happened over the past few years to make this surgery possible.
I visited my parents at IMC yesterday and my dad wasn’t feeling the best. He was up in a chair but was feeling nauseous. Hurray for Zofran in the I.V. He was watching BYU in March Madness when I left (too bad BYU got creamed though). Hopefully every day will be a little better. He is supposed to come home on Monday so we’ll cheer him on for that. Good job Grandpa for being so brave!
This is a poster the grandkids gave Grandpa to wish him a happy recovery!
