Thanks everyone for your support of Larry!!
Update- Larry has successfully gone through surgery. He had a valve in his heart replaced with a "bovine" type of valve. I don't think this is an actual bovine heart valve but rather a valve made from leather...I'm not kidding:) this is what they do now. The valve is said to have a 15 year life expectancy and is superior to a mechanical valve. Two of the three parts of the valve in Larrys heart had grown together. I spoke to him from the hospital yesterday and he is doing great! His doctor has said he will have a LOT more energy now. He sounded good on the phone and should be home soon if he isn't home already. I think we'll see him making music again in no time!
