What I've learned about the surgery is that it's common and pretty routine when it comes to cardiovascular surgeries. So I'm confident in Bob's doctors and their ability to perform it.
Linny has been on edge this weekend and it comes from just wanting to be home in Oklahoma to be with her family. And I don't blame her. It's scary to see people you love go through such an uncertain time.
Please pray for Bob tomorrow morning as he goes under the knife. This may be a selfish request, but more than anything else, I don't want my son, Caedmon, to grow older without having at least 1 grandpa around. I was blessed to have 2 grandpas until age 11 and the other until I was 21. So many stories and so much wisdom can be passed to my Caedmon. And Bob is the perfect person to pass it along.
The video below is not for the squeamish. I searched for video of a carotid endarterectomy on YouTube...
