Glad to hear it, Deb. Did they have to cut a hole in his skull?

^ I don't know the details yet. I'm sure at some point he will send an email if he is able. The area was at the base of the brain stem so maybe not. He had to make a difficult choice between surgery and not. The chances of his having another bleed would have increased 10% a year, so he chose the surgery. I believe the surgery itself carried a 90% success rate. But he has a long recovery period ahead (6-12 months of rehab), at least according to his email he sent before the surgery. He was having issues with balance/stability and nausea. Maybe he will beat that estimate. I hope so.
