A blood vessel was blocked and they shot some meds into it to dissolve/dissipate the clotting. Yesterday it was better but during the night it took a turn for the worse and they did emergency surgery at 3AM today to replace the bad blood vessel on his lower leg with one from his upper leg. I saw him about 11AM and a doctor came in and said the surgeon was being called as he was bleeding too much. There was quite a lot of blood on his bandages and pad on the bed.

I called the hospital and asked to speak with the ICU and had them ask if he wanted a visitor. He did approve me. I did not stay long at all due to his weakened condition.
