My brother (the old bird is 78 ), had a stent put in about 5 or so years ago thru a special and experimental program at the Cleveland Clinic in Miami. His carotid artery was blocked by 80% and very high up, which made it a very dangerous and risky procedure. He came thru with flying colors and is still chugging along. He now lives in NC and goes back to FL once each year for a good going over. He was just back last month and drove back home with a clean bill of health in that department. He'll probably outlive me!
Thank you for replying.

A very warm feeling, but definitely not fuzzy. It will take me a while to move beyond my emotions over this series of events. I'm not stressing over it, but I will feel bothered for a while.

I'm glad to hear your brother is still going strong.It gives me hope.
