Dad got home from the hospital yesterday. I talked to him last night and he sounded as good as new. He said once they got the bleeding to stop (internally) and transfused enough blood back into him where he could, you know, maintain consciousness that he was actually fine after that.

Apparently he felt fine right up until he got violently ill, then he felt fine again as soon as they stopped the bleeding. I'm happy about that! They kept him the extra few days because apparently 8% of people who get that procedure done start to bleed again in the next 72 hours, but he didn't.

He's on some pills now, and has meetings with a health and nutrition specialist and/or dietician guy, so I hope it never happens again.

Yay Dad! Thanks for your support, guys.

Edit: PS: He loves SVXs and was the reason I learned about them in the first place. He wants to buy a 93 AI someday. No worries, Randy I explained yours was not really for sale
