Although this blog started out as a daily update on Chris Johnson's heart surgery, I am using it now to post about the happenings in my life since Chris died. You can email me at mjmj57@bellsouth.net.

Chris had a quiet night. His heart rate is still high but the nurses are keeping on top of that. When we first saw him this morning, he opened his eyes and recognized me, and was able to respond to my questions. So far he has no infection-they are still waiting to read some cultures this afternoon. The anesthesiologist will be in shortly and will decide what needs to be done to help keep Chris's numbers in the right range. I won't be surprised if they wait another day before trying to take him off of the vent-he getting good rest right now. It is a wait and see day. The sun is trying to peek through the cloud cover. It is cold - in the 40's (I love the temp-Carolyn is cold). Carolyn and I will go out this afternoon to get lunch and run some errands-it really makes a difference. Take care I'll update later. MJ
