We made a quick trip to Indiana this past weekend and it was good to see Grandpa. He did have open heart surgery on Monday afternoon. They did 4 bypasses. He is slowly coming out of all the drugs and things seem to be coming along as expected, yet slowly. No major concerns at this point. I'm sure it will be a slow recovery for him. We are thankful everything has gone as smoothly as possible. Thanks for your prayers!!!
We found out last night that my (Anne's) Grandpa is in the hospital in Indianapolis, waiting to find out what's to come next. He went via ambulance as he was having chest pains. They discovered that 3 of his main arteries to/from the heart are blocked 90% or more(please excuse my lack of medical knowledge). He has always appeared to be so healthy for an 87 year old... still planting and working in his garden, taking care of himself, going to church and places all on his own. Right now they are waiting to hear what the surgeons recommend... open heart surgery or other options? Wish we were closer to pop in and see him. I did talk to him last night and at least his humor is still there... telling me that's the fastest ride to Indy he's ever had :).
Here he is with my Bro and Sis-in-law at our cousin's wedding last month... sorry, Matt and Erin, that I didn't ask permission :)!
We love you Papa Floyd and we'll be praying for you... and getting some of my blogger buddies, too, as well!

I'll be praying. Please keep me updated.
You Bet! We'll be praying for Papa Floyd.
I asked Ryan this morning how Papa Floyd was doing, and he said that he was good; Since the surgery was at night, and not during the day, he didn't have to sit in a wheelchair...that's good, right?
