He is sick enough he would need a medical evacuation flight and the cost quoted to my sister was $33k to get him to Seattle and $55k to get him to Detroit. So he is staying there for the surgery. The surgery is triple bypass. The bypasses he had 40 years ago are clogged though he grew another artery that bypassed the bypass already so they only have to do 3 of them. They were saying it would be the week of the 21st, you know, people have to wait for emergency surgery in Canada. But he got lucky and "there was a cancellation" for this Thursday. My guess is the cancellation was for some poor Canadian who croaked while waiting for emergency surgery.
I've talked to him and he said the people in the hospital are really nice to him so he feels OK about having the surgery there. I bit my tongue and didn't say, "Well, the folks that run the funeral home here are really nice, but I don't want to be their customer".
Will find out how it works out Thursday afternoon.
More prayers inbound!
