Update
 

Thanks everyone. I really appreciate your prayers.

Over the weekend he was slowly getting better even though he was still intubated, baloon pump to pump his heart, fever, low BP etc all was going on. But suddenly last night, his condition was getting severely worse! They had to max out the Vent (artificial breathing machine) settings, start new blood pressure medicine, give him blood transfusion etc. He was getting worse by hours!

Today morning, they used portable ultrasound and found that the leaking valve in the heart is leaking much more severely than before. If they don't do something right away, he will NOT survive for long. The only option they have is to do an open heart surgery (triple bypass and Mitral valve replacement) ASAP. With his current critical condition, chances of surviving this surgery is pretty low but that's the chance I (we) have to take. If they don't do the surgery right now, his lungs will fill with blood and eventually his heart will stop beating.

The surgery is tomorrow. THIS IS IT! If he makes it through the surgery, then he will have a chance at a new life. Please say your prayers for him.

thank you in advance.

Update
 

Yesterday approximately 1 PM, they took my dad in for the surgery. Surgery was about 8 hours long. Even an hour before surgery, he had 100+ degrees of fever. I was very nervous. But fortunately, everthing was okay. The surgeon (who is the chief of all the cardio-vascular surgeons) was able to successfully do the Triple Bypass and replace the Mitral Valve. When he open my dad up, he saw about 2 litres of blood/fluid in his both lungs. Every time his heart pumped, leaking valve dumped small amount of blood into the lungs.

Right now he is in Surgical Intensive Care. We have to watch him carefully and see how he progresses. He is still in pretty critical shape. So, keep praying. I'll update you guys soon.

My thoughts are with you. Take care of your family. Don't worry about the "Z" stuff, it dosn't matter.

Very good news, thanks AK. The worst hopefully is behind you with the successful surgery. My dad had quadruple 7 years ago, I understand how nerve wracking this can be. Hang tough, we're praying for your dad!!!
