All Patched Up

Tracie is out of surgery and doing well. The doctor told us that she had about a half of an inch hole in her heart. He also said that as holes in hearts go, this was a whopper! He repaired the hole using a piece of surgical Gore-Tex called a Helex device. www.goremedical.com/helex/ . Can you believe that this woman has run marathons with this big-ass "hole" in her heart? Any of you want to pick a fight with Mama you do it at your own risk. She will be staying overnight for observation and we will be home tomorrow around noon. Right now there is no pain and she is just a little groggy from the procedure. I am sure that by Sunday she will be challenging Drew to an arm wrestle. Let's all be glad we live during a time of modern medicine. Brilliant people have fixed my wife. That's right kids study up on your math and science!
