SURGERY DELAYED

There were two emergency heart transplants and one emergency lung transplant today at Mom’s hospital.  All cardiac surgery was delayed and now in Mom’s case, surgery is rebooked for Dec. 28th.

However she is considered too weak to go home and will have to remain at the hospital.  She is upset needless to say as are all of us in the family.  I am hoping that if she is there in hospital and there is a cancellation of some sort she may still get her surgery sooner.  I will get more details later or possibly just Wednesday morning.

    It is so hard to be patient ( no pun intended ) while waiting for a call for surgery.

    Please tell Mom we are praying and wishing her the very best.

    It will sure be a different Christmas, but one you will not forget !!

    Thinking of you … Trent and Teresa
