As some of you know, Dad had bypass surgery last month. He's still in the hospital but getting stronger both physically and mentally. While weak and getting worn out quick he's pretty much back to his old self. We knew he wouldn't get to fully recover from the bypass surgery before the docs would proceed with dealing with his aneurysms. Well, now he's well enough that...

Tomorrow (Wed, Aug 17) at 7:30 am the doctors are going to go to work on the aneurysm in his aorta. They say it should be a fairly simple procedure to put in a stint. Up through a couple veins and pop it in place. Should be an hour to an hour and a half. Please keep Norman and his doctors and other medical staff in your prayers.
