Christina,
I'd like to offer my hope that your father's tricuspid replacement is successful, and he has an easy recovery. Please let us know how he does, and remember that we're here to answer any questions you may have post-op.
Godspeed

Good Journey! Let us know how it goes when possible. We'll all be biting our nails until we here something. We're as bad as expectant parents!

Thank you all!

Thank you all!

We're up here at Cleveland Clinic. I'm sorry I haven't posted since my initial posting but things got hectic as we travelled up here. I will move my posts to "post op" but just wanted to let you know he came through the surgery very well on Jan. 11. He only spent three days in ICU when initially we had been expecting a week's stay at worst. Right now he is on "step down" dealing with an infection in one of the incisions. They are treating with antibiotics. I will go into more detail on the post -op forum but thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers! I have been reading them and they are really so valuable!

Christina
