OFF PUMP!

Just heard that Larry is no longer relying on the pump!!! He said he felt like a little kid on his birthday when they told him he was getting off it today. So hard to stay flat. They haven't actually removed it, but should be any minute.

The attendings said he is a good candidate for a by-pass. That is not the final word of the surgeons but that is what the attending doc said this morning. This is such wonderful news!

More later. Thanks for all the thoughts, prayers, comments.

  3. Larry and Peg,
    Good to hear some better news. I told Diane one of those Demo----s would never have had the fortitude to survicve such an event. Plus, the Lord is on OUR side.
    Annie is helping us to keep mom up-to-date. Mom said to give you her love and you are in her prayers.
    Keep up the progress. You guys are in our thoughts and prayers.

  4. Larry, I see you are on Fruit Street. Was this named in honor Barney Frank? Or just democrates in general? Keep up the good progress. Carrie does a good job keeping us informed.
