Heidi is home from the hospital 10:30 this morning. Everything post surgery is looking good, her AICD was "interrogated last night, and again this morning, and it is working well and indicates it is "ready" but hopefully not for "action"! She needs to be careful for the next 5 days to keep her left arm quiet so the wires that go from the generator to the heart have a chance to graft and secure themselves. She will follow up with the electrophysiologist in five days. Meanwhile, the site is quite painful and the pain medicines are not her stomach's best friend, so we ask prayers for speedy healing, and that we will figure out the best pain control for her in the mean time. Thank you all for your support and prayers. Kim Gropp

MY GOD, IN WHOM I TRUST." Psalm 91:1-2
