SUCCESS!

Mom just called - Pop is out of the procedure, awake, talking, everything. The catheterization was a success and he has been cleared for any impending surgeries!!

His case will again be presented to the transplant teams this Friday and we will hopefully have some listing news to share next week!!

Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers!! My family and I are so thankful and grateful to all of you :)

Love and Pax...

Cath-e-t-er-i-za-tion

Say that 10 times fast... I dare you! Today is Catheterization day for Pop. He is a bit apprehensive, but who could blame him? He and Mom are headed up to Cleveland in about 30 minutes and Jennifer will be driving up separately. I wish I could be there for support, but I am there in spirit for sure. Sam and I will be going to Ohio in 16 days! We are so excited to go see everyone. I am thrilled that he will FINALLY meet my nephews in person.

Just got off the phone with Jen :) She is bringing her laptop with her so she will keep me posted via Instant Messenger throughout the day.

The procedure itself should only take about 30 minutes. Pop's appointment is at 2pm (I believe). After that, he has to lie on his back for like 3-6 hours or something insane like that! haha. I would be way too antsy ;)

I will post updates as I get them.

Keep the prayers and good thoughts a'comin!!

Love to all,
~Susan
