Quadruple Bypass Surgery

I've learned more about cardiac surgery in the last week than I thought I'd ever want to know.

And by tomorrow, I'll know even more.

My mother's scheduled for her surgery tomorrow morning and her doctor told us he should be done by noon.

A friend of mine, Karen Spears Zacharias, e-mailed me and said that my mother is in better shape than Richard Hyatt and he came through OK. I told Richard that, and even he had to agree.

It seems everyone I've talked to knows someone -- either a family member or good friend -- who has had cardiac surgery. And they've all had some advice that I've passed on to my family. Well, some of it.

If I learn any practical information that I can share, I'll do that Wednesday.

Wish us luck!
