Thanks guys, it looks like tomorrow he will undergo yet another painful surgery. They need to scrape the bone by his big toe to see if they can eliminate the infection (cut it out). If that doesn't work, we are looking at foot amputation, again.

They just canceled his surgery because his bloodwork came back with off numbers! Now, he gets to sit there and be anxious about it.

OK, update, the reason they couldn't do surgery is because one of his carotids is blocked 90%... so, they have to fix that before they get to the foot. This just sucks, sorry for the foul language, but I cannot really think of another word that fits.

Continued prayers for your entire family, DQ. Sorry to learn of the setbacks. Will they be doing the balloon procedure then?

Dad had to be opened up yesterday, it was too large and too high to do the angioplasty. He is currently in ICU, and people can only see him a few minutes per hour. My mother is wiped. No news on the foot surgery, yet.

I am totally anxious over this, I am due to go away, but I have no idea what is going to happen next.

Thanks everyone for your warm thoughts and prayers. I feel so much better talking to all of you than further stressing out my mother.
