Thanks, Mike and Barb. I went to see him earlier today and he's doing
better. The heart rhythms seem to be regular and his heart is beating
without the help of the pace maker at this point. That's encouraging because
maybe he'll get to come home tomorrow and he may not need a permanent pace
maker.

Jack, I'm laughing.  I can't wait to read this to him.  He'll love it, too.
Carolyn, our home address is:

151 South Mineral Street
Keyser, 26726.
I just got back from a visit and the latest is that he seems stronger today
and ready to read a few books and listen to some podcasts and I brought him
some toys with which to do that.  
However, there is an issue with his heart rhythms and they have hooked him
up to a temporary pace maker.  There is a possibility that he will have to
have a permanent pace maker installed and that will mean more surgery,
although it won't be as evasive as the first surgery.  I just hope for the
best, but, in the meantime, he sends a word of thanks to everyone in the
NFBWV family for their thoughts, prayers, and well wishes for his recovery.
As the younger set would say, you guys are awesome!


Peace
Karen
