My mother got through her surgery just fine.

She had her second carotid artery surgery today and she did just fine. Her doctor was pleased how it went and now she has two clear carotid arteries. Now she needs to have her clogs check around her heart and her legs.

Thanks for the good thoughts and prayers. Hopefully she comes home tomorrow.

I was wondering how her surgery went. Glad that it went well and that she is on the mend until the next time.
