GOOD NEWS

WE got bumped today, so the 7 AM procedure was more like 11:30, but the doctor just came out and was smiling. NOTHING LIKE A SMILING DOCTOR.
ALL FOUR OLD 18 YEAR OLD BYPASSES are WIDE OPEN.

I think he was even surprised. There are some medication adjustments that will give him a better heart flow and the possibility of a procedure months down the road if the meds don't do it.....BUT for right now, we are feeling very relieved and very thankful. Will post more later....I have very limited internet here. And the great news is we can go home in about four hours. Thanks so much for your prayers and encouragement. And a special thanks to angel Terri and Carlton for keeping us company while we waited. Now Greg is off to another hospital to have baby Grayson's tests.

A NIGHT WITH GRAYSON

On a night where sleep will probably not come easily and maybe not at all, as we have to be at the hospital at 7 for the heart cath.....and since I have my days and nights mixed up most of the time, early morning anything does not work good for me. A sincere thanks to each one of you that has sent an encouraging email or comment. I am living on those tonight. When your family has had a heart history, it is a little scarier. I am praying that tomorrow night I can post that there were no blockages or minimal ones that could be easily opened. And you will not waste a prayer on baby Grayson or his Mom and Dad tomorrow either. He has to have some tests in the afternoon at a totally different hospital so it will not be an easy day for any of us. He has had so many upper respiratory infections that there are a few things they need to rule out. But on a HAPPY NOTE, I will share a few pictures I snapped of him last night.
Does that look like a Mom and Dad IN LOVE? A GRAMMY STEALING SOME SUGAR
