Surgery Date

Friends and family we finally have a surgery date! Dad will be having an Esophagectomy on Thursday February 4th. He will go into the hospital the night before and then have the surgery at 8:15 on Thursday morning. He will be in surgery for at least 8 hours and will spend two nights in the ICU. He will not be allowed visitors while in the ICU. He will then be in the hospital for at least a week. He should be able to have visitors by Sunday February 7th. Please call or text Lisa if you'd like to visit as dad will not have his phone available. He will not be able to eat while in the hospital so please don't bring him any food. Thank you all for all the love, support and prayers. We feel overwhelmingly blessed! I will update once the surgery is over and will let you all know how it goes!

  2. Cousin Barry, Sorry to hear of your predicament. I will pray for you and the doctor that will be performing the surgery. And for your family to be uplifted during this time. I have faith that things will work out, even if it doesn't meet our expectations.

    Good luck, Barry. God be with you and May the Force (Priesthood) be with you....

    Your cousin Dustin
