~ !!! UPDATE !!! ~

...via email to me yesterday...

Hi Guys, Thought I would send out a little update on the wonderful lad I call "The Patient". Tracy went to the hospital on the 27Th of Jan. and returned home on Tuesday Feb 3rd.The repair of his mitral valve went smoothly, albeit a tiny complication with a drug he was administered under anesthesia. Sensitive one that patient!! The Doc had it under control asap. Anyhoo, they only had to repair the valve, no pig innards here. Although you probably could of drove a big mack through the hole he had. After a few days recovering he was sent home on Tuesday this week. He is making progress, slowly. He has some shortness of breath and fatigue which is all expected. Just gonna take some time. Hope all of you are doing well. If you have a desire to know more I do believe the Patient can fill you in. Take care Love to you. Lori Gep
