Update: 7:12 PM

Well, we were finally able to go in and see Mike. He was in surgery a bit longer than expected but is now resting comfortably in his ICU room. Tonight he will remain sedated, allowing his new valve and lungs to rest. We are hoping he will be awake tomorrow and be able to give his wife a sexy wink. Kathy and Bonnie are going to stay with him for a bit while the rest of us go home and start dinner. We are all going to sleep better tonight (both cause we are super tired, and that he is in good hands tonight). Thanks again for your well wishes and I will post more information tomorrow.

    If Nolan manages a sexy wink, we will know that he is really down there for cosmetic work. George

    Did the surgeon find any partially-digested Republicans?

    everyone can rest easy now. he is in good hands and hopefully will be comfortable through the night. more importantly, i hope kathy can get some rest. however, unlike della, not so sure about "looking forward" to his first words! more hugs to all, prayers keep coming, even indoors.
