Today was the day...

..... Patrick and I both went to work today. I received a call at 7:50 am from the PA for the cardiac surgeon. She informed me that the surgery was scheduled for 4 pm today. I called Patrick and we both arranged to leave work after noon to go to the hospital. The surgery did happen as planned and Nate did very well. He is pretty heavily medicated to prevent pain, but looks great. Hopefully we can start to wean the ventilator later this week. We will keep everyone informed!

    I didn't check in last night and missed the news. I am only up at this crazy hour because I was dreaming about Nates surgery today, and wanted to pop in and let you know he was in my prayers today. Glad to head it went well and it's over, prayers now focued on getting him off the vent and strong unough for the great escape. Love and prayers to the three of you. Kat and Lucian
