Wow! Your hubby was in the OR quite a long time. I can only imagine how distraught you must have been. I'm glad everything went well and he is on the mend. Sending your hubby wishes for a speedy recovery. |
He was in for a long time but the doctor did not give up. I was worried about the time under the anesthesia but I was told to actually worry about the time he coded. The doctor told me that there could be neurological damages, temporary or permanent. Thank God, there were none. He was in ICU many days and had a lot of complications but I guess his age 45, helped in the recovery. I figured you were somehow in the medical field, AICD's are not that common. Thanks for your thoughts.
