As most now know, I am facing open heart surgery on August 6th to replace my aortic valve. Although I have known for 4 years that this day would eventually come, the day seems to be approaching at a rapid pace. To support the inquiries of so many great friends and family members I have created this blog with the purpose of providing an update on my surgery and recovery. Comments are encouraged!

Jerry is in ccu and looks great!!! He is not completely awake but is giving his nurse a hard time haha. He wants the breathing tube out and he hates the hand restraints. He is writing letters on the nurse's hand...telling her what he wants. Dr. Kempe says everything went great!!! Everyone is amazed at how good Jerry looks...his color is good and when I gave him a kiss he opened his eyes really wide...he obviously hasn't lost his sense of humor haha. His blood pressure is a little high so they are working on it but so far so good. Thank you all so very much for all the prayers....God truly was with him and our family. We love you all very much :)
