MARCH 3, 2008

I have not posted a blog in a while because there has been no good news. But today we had some good news. My dad suvived major surgery called decortication. Without this surgery he would have had no chance of surviving. The doctors cleaned out the infection in his chest and put in a chest tube. The chest tube will remain in for couple days to drain. The procedure was very risky due to my dad's condition of being malnutritioned and the problems he had experienced with his heart. We are thrilled he made it through. He is in lots of pain but very happy to be alive. He is a real fighter and we are so proud of him!!! We will keep you posted.
