Surgery will now be on WED. & THURS. I expressed my aggrivation and they called the main Dr. who is out of town. He said he is the boss and did not know why the Cardio Dr.'s and the "resident" Dr.'s told us it would take place on Tuesday. He also said that he was in conference with other Neurosurgeons at his conference over Mick's surgery. They were trying to come up with a plan where a Heart/Lung Bi-pass would not have to take place and surgery would only have to take 1 day. I was hopeful until the Cardio Dr. came in and said that it would not take place like that because of the new complication. Mick and his blood clot in his leg complicates them going through the groin so they have to open his chest up; cool down his body and put him on bi-pass. So, the plan is tomorrow he will have the major angigram that they have been talking about; he'll have to lay still for 7hrs. after the procedure. Tuesday they will do another CT scan with contrast and some other type of test that they didn't tell me about. Wed. will begin the surgery; possibly an external shunt will be put in after other shunt taken out; bi-pass from arm to brain might still be done (pulling vein-artery) to do this (still confused over this process)... and then the trechiotomy. Several of these are still waiting to find out results from tomorrows test. Pray for only positive results so there are no more delays or maybe we can cut out some of these procedures.
Laugh of Day:My mom and I were in Mick's room and she was telling me how she sold my brothers chain saw at her garage sale and said she could sell one for $25. Mick was suppose to be asleep... Next thing we heard was Micks threats mind you ...."Mick's eyes were closed" he said "YOU SELL MY CHAINSAW FOR $25 AND YOUR A** IS GRASS!"...My mom laughed so hard. I asked him if he was going to be mad at my mom and he said " NO, YOU".... I always get blamed even if it's not my fault..... lol...that's o.k. I'll just go with the flow.
