Please pray for my mom and dad today if you will. Mom is having a mitral valve replacement today.
UPDATE: The Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration have her on their list for prayer once an hour for the next 168 hours! What an awesome weapon prayer is in faithful hands.
ANOTHER UPDATE: 4:00 p.m. and Papa just called. She's doing great! The surgery apparently went very well. She's still sleeping in ICU but the surgeon said she is going to feel much better. Hallelujah.
9:00 p.m. UPDATE: She's awake, she knows Papa and smiles at him, but they haven't been able to wean her off the respirator and she has orthostatic hypotension and she's in afib. Doc says don't worry, these things happen sometimes, but of course we're nervous. Note to self: God is faithful.

Hi. I had mitral valve replacement surgery in July and, while the recovery was initially painful in the chest area, the valve replacement allowed for much improved health. Mom will be delighted once it is all over. Best wishes for her speedy recovery.
