Traveling

at 06/01/07 2:28AM
Hello everyone! I will be leaving Saturday for Tampa, Florida. My grandfather, JT Smith who is a full time gospel preacher in Tampa, is having open-heart surgery for the second time. The surgery is scheduled for tomorrow, Friday, June 1, at 10:00 am Eastern time. I was unable to get a flight tomorrow, so I will be flying out on Saturday to help take care of my granddad, and help my grandmother in any way that I can. I'm not sure how long I will be staying...I guess it will depend on how well he does and how much help he and my grandmother will need. Please keep him in your prayers! Thanks and God bless you all!

****UPDATE****
Granddad had his surgery today and everything went well. He is in ICU in stable condition and is doing as well as can be expected. Please continue to remember him in your prayers! Thanks!!
