Success

The surgery is over and was a success. A success!!

We've just spoke to the surgeon, and things could not have gone better. They repaired all three aneurysms. They even found a small forth one, which they repaired while in there. The surgeon says my Dad is highly susceptible to aneurysms and we'll need to take care going forward that we are performing annual brain scans to catch them in time. He's in the recovery room now. He'll be in ICU for 24 hours and then it's on to a regular hospital room for several more days.

We are a hot, teary, mess here in the Mayo Clinic waiting room. It's over. And it was a freaking success.

Go team Dad!
