On December 30th Mark had open heart surgery to repair a leaking valve that he didn't know he had! After a few episodes of being light headed and then passing out in public twice, a nurse told him she heard heart murmur. As it turns out the 5 and half hour surgery was a bit more complicated that anticipated. The doctor had to do a full valve replacement because the repair was unsuccessful. Mark is finally headed home as of January 4th. This comes with a lot of therapy, a lot of restrictions and a lot of stress. Right now we want to make sure they are well fed and we will update this page as their needs change. Thank you all for your love and support!
