Update

My sister just texted me, my father is now on his blood and breathing machine while they attack the replacement veins on his heart.  I can't tell you guys how weird it is knowing that your father is literally being kept alive via  machine while they re-route blood flow to his heart... it is a VERY strange sensation.

Sharing pictures of my dad, so you all know who are praying for ;-)

Oh, funny tid bit... my father has been bald since he was about 25, but the man is quite fuzzy everywhere else ;-)  it took them 45 minutes to 'sheer' ( my sister's term) him for this surgery!!  that was BEFORE his 45 min pre surgery prep time, hahahahaha, that's the daddy i love :-) 

it would only make sense that i married a fuzzy guy too.
