ljs Posted December 28, 2009 Author Share Posted December 28, 2009 First, thank you too my ES family for all of the prayers. The stint/angioplasty didn't work, its worse than they thought. He will need a triple bypass; waiting for the cardiac surgeon to come chat with us. My dad smoked cig's for prob 20 some years, but quit 20 years ago. He is overweight though and that will need to change. He cried this morning and that scared me, I only ever saw him cry when his mom died. I'm really close to him, and everyone says I not only look like my pops, but I act like him...lol I'm definitely my fathers daughter. anyway, thankfully my sister brought her laptop (I'm 3 hours from home)....so I'll post again when I have more updates.

ljs Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 surgery went well- we can go see him in about 15 minutes. Turned out they did a quadruple bypass- they used a leg vein and a chest vain - one was a double pass, and then 2 single passes. Cool thing is that they cardiac surgeon went to Georgetown U and did his cardiac residency at U of Va- I should have asked if he was a Redskins fan..lol anyway, thanks again for all the prayers. Now a road to recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robotfire Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 My dad had two open heart surgeries earlier this year. He came within an inch of his life from an infection, and he's part robot now. It's freaky stuff, but he's actually healthier now than he was before going in. I hope your dad has a full recovery like mine did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeInJc aka M.I.A. Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Good to hear the surgery went well. You'll still be in my prayers and thoughts as your father goes through recovery. May God help to minimize the pain from recovery and help the process along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
