Good heavens, it's been 10 days since he made the list! That s a miracle. The heart's a good one, the surgery is on, and its going to be a long night. That man will do ANYTHING to get out of the Moody Blues concert !

The heart is a good one. DF joked that he hoped the guy had a good golf swing. I hope the donor could dance!

What a relief that is. We were told that some recipients come in up to 3X before its a match.

Try and get yourself some rest. When my dad was on the table, it was a few hours of surgery - then into a recovery room and under observation. My mom & I sat for a long time waiting for word that it was done - then I had to convince her to go home with me so she could get some sleep - because it was going to be a few more hours before we could even see him.
Do they have a place there where you can lie down for a while?

No. Unfortunately. By the time I could leave and go home, it'll be late and dark. I'm not going to my car then. No way

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

No way Hon, if you do decide you want to go home I'm sure hospital security will walk you to your car. Just ask the charge nurse to call them, or talk to the nursing supervisor. There's no need for you to sit up in that hospital all night because you feel you can't get to your car.

I asked one time. The security was just standing around talking to each other. They told me this " wasnt Detroit. "

If a family member had come to me after a comment like that was made to him/her, whoever made the comment best be well hidden or have permanently left the grounds!

I think people here in this town have the strange idea that crime only occurs in certain areas. What a bubble.

Gosh, they're graphic with their updates. If I had anything in my stomach, I wouldn't anymore. But nicely put, the heart is here and they are putting it in and he is stable and doing well.

Hey Zib, I'm still sending prayers your direction. Will they be giving you status reports during the surgery, or not until they're closing?
