Update on Don Smith

As some of you may have heard, my dad, Don Smith, was advised by a cardiologist to make a trip to Lincoln and check into the Nebraska Heart Hospital, where a catheterization was done on Friday. The discovery of the major blocked artery required a double bypass surgery on Monday.

This morning (Tuesday) I found him sitting up having a piece of toast and a cup of coffee. Today he walked around on the floor where he is staying until he enters Madonna later this week.

We expect him to be up to his ornery normal tricks soon!!

When Dad is transferred to Madonna, we'll post an update with mailing address where cards can reach him.
