This past Tuesday my dad had surgery. The carodid artery in his neck was more than 80% blocked. So they made an incision from behind his ear down to his collar bone. Poor dad! They opened the artery and cleaned it out, then stitched it together again. The doctor said he was a stroke waiting to happen. He was suppose to go home yesterday but he was having trouble swallowing and then he felt like he was struggling to breathe. So they put him on steroids and kept him another day. He should be going home (they are summering in Richvale,Utah) this morning. Mom sent me a picture of his battle wound so I'll post it with this blog. Anyway, please keep him and my mom in your prayers. Get better, dad! I love you.
