Mom Is Out Of Surgery!!

Mom's surgery is over. We have just spoken with the surgeon who told us that things went even better than anticipated. It turns out that she only needed the one bypass and he was able to perform the myectomy (removal of the overgrown muscle that divides the heart into two chambers) with little difficulty. We will be able to see her in ICU in about 1 1/2 hours and will know more about her length of stay there. The surgeon thinks that if all goes well, after she moves out of ICU to a room she will probably be in the hospital for a week to 10 days. It's been a good day!
