Chris is in the OR in the middle of being closed. Hope you guys don't mind the blow-by-blow account. It's just so exciting to see anything positive happening.
Bill, play-by-play is fine with me! Thanks for the updates, keep'em coming, and, as this is the first thread I read, I am obviously thinking of both of them.
Appreciate the update, Bill. Very positive thoughts and prayers continuing that things can get back on course for Chris. I will also hold family close in thoughts as this must be a difficult time.
Chris's wound was closed and he was returned to the ICU at about noon. His wife believes the plan is to remove the ventricular assist tomorrow, if things continue to go well, which appears to require another OR trip and then proceed to wake him the next day. Getting closer!
