A quick update on my Mom.
Surgery went well.
She was off the ventilator 2 hours AFTER surgery.
She is still in the ICU/Heart Unit at the hospital and will be there until
they release her to come home; probably another 4 days.
The doctor said mom's valve was so narrow he didn't know how
she WAS NOT having symptoms.
I do, it's called GOD!
Lamentations 3:22-23 says it all for me today...
It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
Thank you Lord for Your Hand of mercy upon our lives.
AND...
Thank you dear friends for your prayers.

Lois,
I am so glad that everything went well. Hopefully you can breathe now.
I told about my Father's surgery in yesterday's post. His heart was over ninetyfive percent blocked when they did the catheterization. They took him by ambulance from the hospital in Sharon where this proceedure was done to Pittsburgh. Scared my Mother to death and I hightailed it from New Jersy because we weren't sure he would make it. I know that he rebounded due to prayer (he was placed on the prayer roll of four LDS Temples - Manhattan, Washington DC, Denver, and Salt Lake) and the grace of God. His mercy is indeed great.
