Options:
Due nothing
Attempt another stent placement thru the underarm
Open heart surgery

Should know plan within the next couple of weeks
Dad will go home tonight around 6pm PST.
My dad had a very successfull surgery going through the groin, newer technique but better than breaking open your rib cage!!
