85% Success Rate

Things that would go in the 15% would be a stroke, hemorrhage, aneurysm (oh wait I already have that), death, etc.

So it doesn’t encompass personality change, cognitive deficiencies that may occur, mental disorders, flat affects, etc.  Executive functioning impairment durr hurr hurr.

Just the actual physical aspects.

The surgery will be 3~5 hours, but apparently, but if everything goes well, I can go home after 3~5 days, and may not even have to stay at a rehabilitation facility (though I have to have an angiogram done again a little after surgery, so that may lengthen the process a little… I hate angiograms…).

Better than 50% success rate or something like that.  At least that’s what I told my mom, since she was flipping out.
