Update- surgery today

The last few days Dad was in a health care facility recovering. Trying to build back health before surgery. But yesterday he started bleeding internally, mildly, and he was readmitted to the Intensive Care Unit.  Late last night Dr. Belnap decided to do the Whipple procedure this morning. Somehow they didn't get in touch with any of the family, and we didn't know until this morning around 10:30. Megan and I (Heather) were able to call him on the phone. He seemed at peace, a little anxious, but he knew this is what we need to have done. Mom was able to get there in time to see him before they took him back, Rich, Dan and Trevor were on their way and caught him on time. They were able to be with him and give him a blessing.  We won't have any updated for four to five hours. We will be in touch.
