Done!! All's well
Talked to surgeon - he was happy how all went. Took good portion of the enlarged septum (middle wall). Also did some tweaking to mitral valve area but valve is good. May have been part of papillary muscle reorientation. Goal was to get gradient as low as possible (the thing that makes him feel awful). Got it from highs of around 160 now to 13!!!!!! YAY!

OK, big hurdle over! Please remind him to take deep breaths as frequently as possible and to walk as soon as they will let him. Both are horridly painful, but will keep him from getting pneumonia as well as getting the chest tubes out faster. Tomorrow will be bad, but Saturday and on will get better.
Love to you both!
