Yay Dad!!!

Dad came through his surgery with flying colors! The stent was placed successfully; therefore, the doctor did not have to open up and do an actual repair (which is a very, very GOOD thing!) - - also, the bypass to his right leg artery was successful, and he now has strong pulse and good blood flow in BOTH legs (which is also a very, very GOOD thing!)

He will be in the hospital for a few days, and then back home with me for a few more before he can head back to his own house.

It's been a long day - - we got to the hospital at 5:45 AM - - and Steve and I are totally exhausted. More info later . . .

(YAY DAD!!!)

Man as machine, just open him up and re-route the plumbing a bit, maybe run the snake down some clogged pipes.

Next thing you know doctors are going to have their butt cracks peaking out of their waistbands while they work!

Ya for you daddy! I'm so happy for you and for him! Good thoughts and prayers can do wonders!
