GrandPa Avera was scheduled to have a stent put in the artyeries in his neck. It was suppose to be a 30 to 45 minute procedure. He was actually in surgery for 2 1/2 hours. The doctor said he has never had so much problems putting in a stent in his life. When they took him to recovery room, his blood pressure dropped very low. They made Mom and my sister leave while they worked on him. Two hours later they let us go back and visit with him. He is very tired but alert and concience. When he left the recovery room they put him in ICU so they could watch his blood pressure close. He was only allowed two visiters at a time. Mom wanted to spend the night but they told her she would have to leave at 10 PM. She was not too happy about that but she will accept it.
JG is scheduled for surgery tomorrow morning at 10 AM but should be able to go home around 6 PM. I took off work the next two days to take care of her. She will probably be really sore for a couple of days. We are hoping recovery will be short. JG wants to get her hair cut Saturday. We will see.

I wonder why they wouldn't let grandma stay with grandpa? I guess thats the way some hospitals work. I hope the surgery helps keep him from falling down as often.
