Better. Stronger. Faster.

So, after what feels like the longest day in history, Mom is out of surgery and in the ICU recovering.

Without the first surgery (in 1988), we would have lost her by 1993. This surgery should last her a good long time, bionic heart and all.

Thanks, God.

    Glad to hear that everything went well in her surgery. Now your task is to keep her from trying to do too much too soon!
