Hospital procedures
I sent the following email to my Dad this evening:
“Hahaha. Thanks so much, Dad. Mum said she will ring you with the latest. In short. cardiac catheter to get more pictures of heart, mend bulging aorta with covered stent and try and stimulate arrhythmias; bypass to sort out probably poor oxygen supply to a bit of my heart; subsequent second attempt to stimulate arrhythmias that, if successful, means that problem not fixed and, thus, defibrillator will be fitted. Aorta mending with covered stent may fail. In this case, it will be mended surgically: one end during bypass, the other with another incision.
All my love,”
