Looking Good

Jackie is doing well. They removed the epidural for pain, the drain tube and the catheter today. His pain is managed well with just pills now. He's comfortable. They say he may get to go home tomorrow. Thanks for your continued prayer.

Jackie is out of surgery. All went well. His heart is doing great. They got all the cancer and don't expect him to need any treatments. He'll be in recovery about an hour and will go to a regular room after that.

They just let us know they haven't started surgery yet. The nurse said she will let us know when he goes into surgery. He's in the holding prep area now and she said its wild back there. They'll let us know when they start.

Lung Surgery

Jackie is having his pre-op work done today. Tentatively he'll be having surgery at 6 in the morning, but they are going to confirm the exact time today. If the doctor has a heart surgery in the morning, Jackie's surgery will probably be done about 11. We'll update here everytime we learn something.
