Another Dad update

Dad's generally doing good now. I'm sitting with Mom in the vistors lounge while she calls Dad's brother, Rich. (We can't use cell phones in the patient rooms.) They have an internet enabled PC here in the lounge, so I can more easily type rather than thumb typing on my phone.
Dad will be here for the weekend. He had one artery that was 100% blocked. They removed the blockage and put in the stent. A second artery is 80% blocked, so they will put a second stent in on Monday. They don't want to do both on the same day.
I updated my sister, Dana, earlier. She was practically ready to hop on a plane, but it looks like everything is ok. (She's pregnant... so we're not encouraging flying anyways.)
I think we're going to be here a while longer, then take Mom home (she rode in the ambulence). We're going to bring Dad his laptop tomorrow. I think they have WIFI here so people can send him letters. He also needs to cancel a few client appointments for the next week.
