Dad in the hospital

Dad went in this morning to have the other 2 stints placed in his arteries. Nothing went well.

To start, they could not find a suitable vein for an IV. Apparently, they had to do the procedure with only a local anesthetic and Dad was able to feel everything. Then, when inserting the first stint, a hole formed and they had to repair it. Because of this, they could only do the one stint and will have to do the another in a couple of weeks. Dad will spend the night at the hospital.

Mom is pretty upset and Dad is frustrated. He was very nervous and anxious going into today's activities, and now he will have to do it again. Thanks to everyone who has kept him in their thoughts and prayers. It means a bunch!
