Arteries and Angiograms and Angioplasties - Oh my!

Yesterday's procedure went well, and I'm happy to report that Dad won't have to undergo any further invasive treatment.  Hooray!  They discovered two blockages, one of which was treated with "ballooning" (for lack of a better word) and the other of which was treated with THREE stents.  Sheesh!  The cardiologist says that Dad's bloodflow in his heart should be much improved, and he should be feeling better soon!  We are so, so grateful, as this situation could have been so much worse.  Thanks for the prayers.  Here is a pic -- pre heart cath.  Dad will love me for this!  ;-)
