Seven Heart Bypass

Today
I spent the day with my sis Helen
we were waiting in the 2nd fl cardiac surgery
waiting room, while our eldest sister Mary was
undergoing a TRIPLE HEART BYPASS

after waiting for what seemed an eternity
was only approx 5 hrs walking around
familiarizing ourselves with places
Mary's Dr. came in the waiting room and
told us that she had a SEVEN
HEART BYPASS, we never knew you
could have more than a quadruple

but our Mary in fact had a seven heart bypass
we had to wait another hour but when we
went in to the ICU room and saw her laying
there sound a sleep with all the tubes and wires
and computerized monitors on her we
thought ok now we have to get Mary and
the family through the Hard part

for Mary has a long road ahead
and we are going to do our best to
guide her through the long road with
any detours.

I am glad that Helen and I were
there together and that Mary did
not walk alone today.
