Phil's surgery on the Tues the 5th went as planned and they replaced his aortic heart valve. We went to visit him in the hospital on Saturday. He was doing quite well. We were glad we could see him and the rest of the family. He needed to be put on IV heparin to thin his blood a bit more (to prevent blood clots), and ended up going home this last Tuesday. We hope to go up again soon to see them all. We're glad everything went so smoothly so far, and pray recovery continues to go well.
