...And all through the house, everyone was sleeping, and I feel like a louse.
Tossing and turning, no sleep to be had, I start counting blessings and asking for more.
(I tried my best with this, it just wasn't coming together, so this is where I end my poetic dream)
We leave this afternoon for UVa. We have to pick Maureen up at the Charlottesville airport later today. It will be great to see her, I don't think I have seen her since July. The surgery is scheduled for tomorrow, and we need to be at the hospital at 11am. He gets the battery module implanted on the left side of his chest and the wires get connected to the electrodes on his brain. Definitely not as invasive as the last one, but this one he will be out for the entire time.
Thursday we will learn how successful this has been as he is scheduled to get "turned on" at 9am. I am hoping when we bring him home Thursday afternoon his daughter gets to see the daddy she never met, and his son the one he forgot was there. It could take up to a year to get the programming right, but I will be grateful for any relief he gets immediately.
Thank you all for your continued prayers, thoughts, and wishes. But, please, keep them coming this week!!!!
I will attempt to post as soon as I can tomorrow after the surgery, but if I can't tomorrow, it will be first thing on Wednesday.
Love to all...
