My uncle had heart surgery last week. A valve in his heart needed replacing. I needed to go up to Fargo for another reason, so I looked for hotels that I could get good deals at in the area. I work for Marriott so get really good deals. Anyways, one hotel caught my eye while going through the list, and I picked it. Turns out it is across the road from the hospital my uncle was at. I love it when a plan comes together. We spent time there with him, giving his wife and daughter time away from the hospital. His operation went well, though long, and he is recovering now. The recovery has been long as well, with some steps back due to pain level, but he is doing better today than yesterday. He has a good team up there in Fargo taking care of him, in a brand new, state of the art hospital on the edge of town. They are doing good for him at Sanford, and I am thankful for that.
