Friday update... Finally spoke with surgeons yesterday, they went in 
with camera through the leg that same way they coiled the first 
anyurizm.
Everything Looks good and no additional bleeding and the fluid
 that was on the brain is working its way out of his system via 
temporary shunt, time will tell if a permanent one is needed.
They are 
keeping him sedated to gain strength and heal a bit.
The reason they 
have not removed the breathing tube is because of a little excess trauma
 related fluid in the lungs which they have been clearing out daily. 
Removing the breathing tube, well they don't want to remove until he is 
completely ready which I completely understand. 
Then I told him there 
are quite a few people that want to visit that I have been holding at 
bay and he stated that he should be ready for visitors about 3 days 
after his tube is removed as his throat is going to be rather raw. 
I 
also want them to shave the back of his head so he doesn't look like a 
Hare Krishna {he is somewhat prideful} and hes also got an issue going 
on with his right eye from pressure behind it from the brain which will 
dissipate with time. 
They are still trying to keep risk of infection 
down as well. 
First 2 weeks after that last surgery are critical to his 
healing. 
They promised to call me to be there when the tube is removed.
 I
 want to be the face he sees when they finally pull back the medication 
veil to remove it. pain meds they will keep doing until about 3 days 
before hes ready to go home which I'm told should be about the 7th of 
October. So far So good. 
Will keep Everyone updated when he is ready for
 visitors.
