Morning Update
Dad's been wheeled into surgery. We were all there to greet him in the morning--he says he slept well, and was bright and cheery. "I thought maybe I was in denial and that all my repressed feelings would overwhelm me," he said. "But, actually, I think that I'm just okay with all this."
Dr. Black, the senior resident, came in with a group of students on rounds, and just before they wheeled him into surgery Bobbi Virta showed up to say hello, and hang out with us. After a prayer with Bobbi, off he went, wheeled down the hall. Currently, we're all in the waiting room reading the paper, chatting and (so it seems) blogging. More when we know it.
