Benny's Procedure

I know many have been wondering when Benny's procedure was going to happen. We have been wondering too...until today. We finally found out that Benny will have his cardio-cath procedure on Thursday at 10:30am. Of course, we had already planned for Benny to leave for Texas with Patty on Thursday, but now the plans must change...again. It's obviously a less invasive procedure than heart surgery but it still takes about 3-4 hours. They will do some exploratory stuff with a camera to see if the balloon will work to open his artery up and if it will, they will do it then. If it won't work, then he'll have to have heart surgery again. This would wait until we got to Texas though. We are praying for the best, and are hopeful that the balloon is all that will be needed! It's one overnight stay at the hospital for Benny so he'll be able to come home Friday. He'll have the weekend to recover and then it's off to Texas on Monday!

The move went well today. We got the house all packed up...man do we have a lot of crap! Darin left tonight with the truck so hopefully he will make good time and get to Texas by tomorrow evening. Please keep him in your prayers as he makes his way to Texas, by himself. My dad will be leaving tomorrow morning with our car (he's driving it out there for us) so keep him in your prayers as well. We are all excited about this new adventure and know that whatever God has in store for us, it'll be great!

I will make sure to let you all know how the procedure goes and what we find out. It's time for bed for me! By the way, if you would like to email me, please use my gmail account as our central cox account is unavailable to me. My email is elisiacarr@gmail.com
