dad sees the new vascular dr on the 12th. I guess about a week later they will do his caroitid artery surgery. I told my stepmom to see if they can coordinate both at the same time to save him from 2 stays in the hospital back to back and to keep from putting him to sleep 2x's. the bad thing is he really needs this biopsy. he is urniating blood mostly now. scarey to me. errrrrrr
