Since the fluid build up has increased in the last 24 hours, they're just going ahead with the surgery to put a window in his pericardial sac. Surgery should be around 7:30-8am and will last about an hour. If all goes well he should be home by Sunday. The girls and I made it up from St. George just in time to come see him and get some much-needed hugs from Grandpa. We had a little family prayer with him from Annie and we all agreed that we feel really good about tomorrow.
On our way into the all-to-familiar lobby of the hospital tonight we ran into Keith Wallace, one of Dads best friends, as he was just leaving from visiting Dad. And my cute niece from my previous marriage, Lynette - a freshman at the U- had come to visit Dad earlier today which was great - he loves an excuse to hear all about campus life and her plans at the U.
Thanks to all of you for everything - we love you!
