Mom's home

Mom's procedure is finished and she is home, now. The artery in her left leg, starting from her hip and running down to her knee, was 98% blocked. The doctor only put stints in this leg. The arteries in her other leg and kidneys has to have stints, too, but she has to go back to the hospital during the first week of November to have the procedure done. She is doing well and thanks everyone for all your prayers.
