Dear Friends -
I just wanted to keep you posted on Henry's condition. Today he underwent a heart catheterization (sp?). They discovered that all his heart arteries are closed 60 - 85%. So on Monday morning he will undergo a heart bypass (4) surgery. He will be in Intensive Care for two days before moving to a regular room for another couple of days. We need your thoughts and prayers at this time. Henry will be unable to play golf for 3 months and can't drive for 3 weeks. Sounds drastic but we know this is what he needs to do.
I leave home early in the morning and get home late in the evening. Cell phones cannot be turned on in the hospital. But you can call his room until Monday. His direct line is 804-746-2210. His room number is 2210. That will change next week. The name and address for the hospital is:
Bon Secours Memorial Regional Medical Center
8260 Atlee Road
Mechanicsville, VA 23116
804-746-6000
The hospital is about 10 miles from the house. I will keep you posted after the surgery on Monday. Thanks for the many phone calls and good wishes. Our man will come through this with shining colors, I'm sure. Please feel free to pass this along to anyone else you might know. Thanks for your love and friendship.
Julie
