It's already started! We got to the hospital at 5:30 and by 6 he was gone and back into holding. We won't see him again until after the surgery. The nurse said it should start about 8:15 and we would get at least 2 calls, one when they start and one when he's on bypass. After that we may not know anything until it's over and the dr. comes out.

He was still fine this morning. We all told him to behave himself and we would see him later. We're going to go get some breakfast in a little while and then settle in.

We have lots of prayer chains going today and several churches held special prayer for him last night. Friends have been posting on Facebook that they need prayers for their friend and from what I'm reading, people are responding without even knowing what they are praying for. Isn't God good!

I'll keep this updated throughout the day and will be sending some texts also. Keep up the good work!
