I just got back from the hosptial.
Steve has come through the surgery with flying colors. I got to see him for a few minutes. Of course he was still asleep. Surgery went as plan, one ByPass and valve replacement. They could not repair the damage heart valve, had to replace with a mechanical valve. I'll be going back to the hosptial tonight. They said, they would have him sitting up in bed later this evening. More info later night or tomorrow.

UP DATE..... Steve is doing better this morning. He is still in ICU. Hopefully somtime today they will move him out of ICU. They are having some problems getting his blood pressure up to where it needs to be. They will not move out of ICU until that happens. All in all, he's doing fine.
If anyone has had this surgery done, you know how his fills. I know, I do.
