FYI---BROTHER ALERT!!!

Just to let everyone know

Mark is having bypass surgery on Monday, Nov 3rd. He will go into the hospital on Sunday, Nov 2nd at 11:30 am for preliminary tests, prep, etc. He does not know what time his surgery is scheduled for on Monday. The doctors are hoping this will be a double bypass, but from his recent angioplasty results, they are not sure. Apparently he now has total blockage and his heart has created it's own bypasses. He also is having trouble controlling his diabetes and that will factor into his surgery and recovery.

He will be at Intermountain Healthcare in SLC. I don't have the phone number for it yet but will post it as soon as I get it as I expect him to receive calls from his family after his surgery.

Mark has both my cell phone number and Pete's number and has passed them on to his girlfriend, Jackie. I've also asked him to give both numbers to his doctors/nurses. I will check in periodically on Monday with the hospital and/or Jackie.

Let's all pray for Mark to come through this surgery with great results!!
