Thread Name: John Roberts surgery
Subject: RE: John Roberts surgery
This will be short. Big storm bearing down.

John made it through surgery very well, by all the signs so far. In the end, they did a quadruple bypass, not a triple. We have no remarks from the surgeon yet about the change. He is in ICU, still unconscious, slowly being warmed up and showing good numbers.

The present plan will have him back on the cardiac unit, sitting up and moving tomorrow.

Lisa will be seeing him again in a couple of hours, by which time he'll likely be (somewhat) awake. By then, there may be more word from the doctors as well.

Good news, though. We've seen him. He looks as good as a thoroughly entubed fellow can look.

More later,    - George
