Surgery Day Update 1

Good Morning.

We are 40 minutes into the surgery. Everyone has been wonderful. The surgical nurses in the prep area were singing the praises of Dr. Duke (the surgeon).

We anticipate the procedure taking 2-2.5 hours if Dr. Duke can repair the valve. If he has to replace, it may tack on an additional hour. I'm supposed to receive a visit from a volunteer at the half-way point of the surgery, and will update then.

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and prayers.

Glad to hear everything is going smoothly so far. The Office Wide went well and Paula was an enjoyable speaker. Everyone sends their thoughts and well wishes. Keep us posted, we'll be checking in.
