Finally a surgery date!!
Today we got the call from the St Boniface Hospital that they have scheduled surgery for Jeffery's heart valve replacement. It will be 2 days from now!! Not much time to prepare, maybe that is good-no time to worry about it.
Jeff went to work tonight, it is his last shift for awhile. The recovery is supposed to be up to 3 months.
Tomorrow we will go to the hospital to have blood drawn. He will be crossmatched for 6 units of blood.
My Dad has been diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus and will be starting chemotherapy next week. Today my Dad was at the same hospital having an IV line established to receive the chemo through. So tomorrow we will both be at the hospital for different reasons. We will try to meet for coffee at the hospital. Jeffery and his grandpa need to see each other before they are separated for their procedures. They both will need to avoid people with any infections. My plan is to take my laptop with me to the hospital so I can update everyone at the same time. The address is www.dorothywiens.blogspot.ca . Please check it for progress reports and prayer requests. Thanks everyone. Dorothy
