Well my dad wanted me to post for him after he made it out of surgery. It's been a really long day for all of us! His surgery only lasted about 3.5 hours but he was having a lot of blood output so after several hours of watching and doing some tests to see if it was going to improve they took him back in to see if there was something going on. He had a tear from a wire? but they fixed it and he was back in his room at about 8:45 p.m. Prior to them deciding to take him back in they were going to remove the ventilator because he was breathing good on his own and doing good. Strong. They plan to keep him asleep and comfortable for the night and take the ventilator in the morning. So we are going to try to get some sleep tonight. I don't think any of us slept much last night - including my daddy! It was a little overwhelming seeing my always strong dad like that after surgery but a relief that it is over and seems to have gone well.
