Sam received a call from Beaumont today with all the details for tomorrow's procedure. We need to report to the hospital at 10:30am (much better than the original 6:30am they had him down for). His procedure is slated to last between 4-6 hours and afterwards he will need to lay on his back for up to 8 hours. This is very similar to the catheterization he had done in 2009 at UofM. Unlike the catheterization they will go through a vein in his leg which should be less invasive - the catheterization went through his groin which took longer to heal and caused some complications.
Sam also received a Beaumont video link with a very informational video for tomorrow - almost too much information! I can't share that one as its through their patient system but I did find one that was shorter and similar that outlines some of the key details.
As you can imagine tomorrow will be a very long day and with that I am off to bed...I will post updates to the blog throughout the day tomorrow.
We appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers!!
