His date for surgery will be decided soon after the doctors complete tests to decide the extent of damage. Here’s what he posted this morning on facebook:

“This morning Darlene and I will be boarding a plane to travel to the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. After seeing 3 heart specialists including visiting the Emory Heart & Vascular Center in Atlanta. I have been told I need heart surgery. I am blessed that the top surgeon in the US Lars Svensson, MD, PhD – Cleveland Clinic will be doing the surgery. I will be going through tests from 7am until 3pm tomorrow to determine when the surgery will take place.

I have an enormous Faith in God. I wake up every day with passion and purpose and realize there are so many people just trying to survive. I am so thankful!! I have a lot of people praying for me, family, friends & church. Just a bump in the road! We serve a mighty Big God. Looking forward to new results! God is in control. “I Believe!””
