Update on Lyssa's Dad

Just got an on-site report from Dan’s daughter Lyssa that his ICD (Implanted Cardiac Defibrillator) is now in place, and the procedure went well. He’s back in his room, drugged up and napping for a few hours. He probably won’t be geared up for visitors until late afternoon or early evening, then a few at a time, as the room is small. He does enjoy your visits and, as always, sharing stories. He keeps expressing amazement (often, with tears) at the number of people who have called, prayed, emailed him through the hospital site, sent cards, stopped by to see him, left messages on he Caring Bridge web site, and just sat silently keeping watch. He is so grateful for all of you. Also for the big batch of chocolate chip cookies from Kristi and Steve Little at Chef’s Kitchen! Be sure to take one from the big, glass jar if it isn’t empty by now! Thanks and blessings to you from Dan and his family.
