Where do I start... ...Maybe about a month and a half ago, my dad had some chest pain while he was working. He stopped doing what he was doing, caught the breath back that he had lost. turns out he had his first heart attack.
Two weeks later he had two others he didn't know about.
He had gone through different things at the V.A. hospital. Tests, what not. He was told if he had any other chest pain to go in right away.
Wednesday the 25th of January he had some chest pain, went to the hospital. Thursday evening they transferred him to the V.A. hospital in Fairfield, CA. On Travis Air force base. They evidently have a really good cardiovascular department there.
They did an angiogram friday morning... The cardiologist found that stints would not help.
I went up to Fairfield Saturday morning. Made it there around 7:15a.m. Saw my dad just prior to him going into open heart surgery. He had a quadruple bypass.
The surgery went well. He is recovering very well. It seems he is being release tomorrow afternoon. Astounding for open heart surgery. That hospital truly has a great cardiology department.
My dads father (my grandpa) had a quadruple bypass when he was 51. My dad is 55.
Here are some photos from the trip up and or down from Fairfield.
Also, I am having him stay with me at my home for the first few days to a week. I am lucky enough to live caring house mates who I cherish with all of my heart. They are okay with me having my dad here. I truly couldn't have any better house mates.
So I set up the middle bedroom to be welcoming. Pictures will show.
These photos weren't edited at all. Don't have time.
