Update

Ken has been taken into OR for a cerebral angiogram. Dr. Deshmukh is performing the procedure himself. Hope to hear more in a few hours.

If the angio shows that the artery bypass is not supplying enough blood, we have to discuss more options. Perhaps a vertebral artery to MCA bypass which would mean another surgery on that side.

Here is the angio from October 2009. The left side shows his good side. The right side shows the bad one.



Sigh . . .

    I hope everything goes better for you both. With your Mom and Dad coming to visit you will have some good support and hopefully a break in your daily routine.
    We are all keeping you both in our thoughts and prayers and wish you some comfort at this difficult time.
    Life sure isn't easy sometimes. Keep your chin up.
