I will first start by saying that I was an idiot for complaining about the previous surgeries because this one has totally taken the cake in pain and other fun stuff that comes with being cut on. The artery repair went well, but the overall surgery was a lot more complicated than they thought. Mainly due to scar tissue. I was on the table for 5 hours and Dr. Cherry almost backed out for fear it was getting a bit dangerous to try to get through crazy tissue to the artery. I'm glad he didn't. I'm still in the hospital and feel to crappy to give details so here are some fun pics to tell the tale:
