Dad got out of his pacemaker surgery at about 4:30pm yesterday.  I spoke with him on the phone, and he was feeling great, aside from, “an anvil on his shoulder”.  (He was referring to pain at the site of surgery, not an actual anvil)

He's very excited about having such a serious problem fixed.  His EKG is very strong and precise now, much better than it was before.  Since his thyroid surgery years and years ago, his resting heart-rate has been low, and now it cannot drop below 60 bpm.  This should help him have a more active lifestyle.

Anyway, he's doing great and should get to go home this evening.  Thanks for your continued prayers and support.
