The surgery was a success. As I was told prior to the operation, There would be items they would not be able to fix. Some of the heart arteries were just too narrow to bypass or to be stented. So I got the LAD and another artery bypassed and of course, the mother of the widowmaker is stented.
The mammary arteries were in poor shape and couldn't be used. So in the end they had to use my leg veins. From each Leg. In the end, I received a small extension of life. Statistically 2-12 years, is the usefullnes of such grafts. Afterward another evalation of the heart will occur. (of course I will see the cardiologist on a regular basis.)
The surgery has been suceesfuly conluded. Lets see what's lies ahead.
