Everybody Just Take a Deep Breath. Er, Sorry, Poor Choice of Words

Dad's at Corning Hospital, which is part of the same Guthrie network as Robert Packard, where he had the bypass done. So I assumed that the heart surgeon had been brought into the discussions of Dad's case. I was wrong, as my BIL discovered when he called the surgeon this morning.

Anyway, the surgeon thinks that it's not as serious as the pulmonary specialists do, that it's just a temporary post-surgical inflammation that will go away in a couple of weeks. While he certainly is expected to assume the best outcome of the work he does, it makes me happy to know that there's at least one doctor who thinks this is no big deal.
