Papa's Surgery

UPDATE --- visit www.bobhines.blogspot.com to findout and stay up to date on Papa's info


I know this is mom's blog, but this is still the best way to get information out to everyone about Papa and what's going on with his heart. The surgery went fine without any complications. However, when they got in there, they saw that he had 8 blockages with the littlest of them still at about 50%. They attribute his survival thus far due to how active he has been. They are going to keep him in the hospital until they operate on him next week. They are going to do a bypass with an aoritc valve replacement. They say it is good that he didn't have a full-on heart attack because that could have been really bad.

As for mom, she will be with me this weekend. We will probably go up to Kennestone (her stomping grounds!) and visit Papa this weekend.
