I spoke with Mom, and here’s the latest update:
Dad’s surgery is scheduled for the 22nd, and he will be admitted to the hospital the night before. I’m relieved you’ll be there with me. I’ll give you all the details when you call today. The doctor expects him to stay in the hospital for about 7 days, assuming there are no complications. They will be removing a part of his colon and he’ll have a significant incision, extending from his previous open-heart surgery scar, so it will now run
