Wednesday Morning at 6AM Akiko will undergo open heart surgery for a mitral valve replacement. The repair job she had last time was "Guranteed for Years", and lasted for 11. This time they have decided to totally replace due to continuing damage from a childhood episode of rhumatic fever. She is niot afraid of the surgery, but the recovery is so painful! Thanks; Clark

An Update On Akiko
Akiko went into the operating room at 10AM this morning for a mitral valve replacement. It was more difficult than expected due to a situation the surgeon had only seen once before in 15 years! After the repair, while taking her off the bypass machine Akiko esentially had a blowout of the heart and had to be re-opened! The second repair went well but tonight Akiko remains in an induced coma to prevent movement. As of now all signs are good, and the surgeon went home about 6:45PM All your prayers and your flowers are very much appreciated! Clark

At a little after 8PM last night Akiko's chest had to be opened for a third time! The bleeding was in a new location again. At 7AM the surgeon motioned me to the bedside and obviously happy told me the breathing tube had been removed. Akiko began responding and talking to the kids! She will be moved out of the CRITICAL CARE UNIT TOMORROW!!! Thanks for all the prayers! Clark
THanks for the news
It's great to hear that everything is going good for now. Prayers and love are your way to speedy recovery for your wife and comfort for your family.
