Update

Thank you for all the prayers on behalf of my dad. He is scheduled for open heart surgery on Thursday at 7am. This will involve atrial valve replacement and then repairing an aneurism that extends from the aortic root into some portion of the ascending aortic branch. It is more difficult than was originally thought which will lengthen the surgery, but shouldn't lengthen recovery. Of course, there are multiple risks, but thankfully dad is healthy. Your continued prayers are greatly appreciated.

I've been keeping up thru Jenna's blog a little bit. What a scary time! But sounds like the prognosis is good. Either you or Jenna post when you have a moment after surgery later today. Thinking of you!

Love,
Sher
