My Mom is scheduled for it next week, after it had to be re-scheduled do to some other problems.
I goggled the off pump verse the on pump and they described it as threading a needle on a rocking boat.
The surgeon better hope he does a perfect job, because there will be 4 sons standing inside the waiting room.

Have any of you forumites have any loved ones or yourself experience the off pump bypass?

Oh, DoWhat, I so hope that the surgery went really well, and that your mom is on her way to bugging the crap out of you again.

Thanks all.
A very successful triple bypass.
She is still very sedated and sleeping, so hopefully she will be awake and some what alert in the morning.
REX Hospital in Raleigh, NC is an amazing place.
Awesome staff and the friendliest people I have ever met.

Glad to hear the news. She's going to feel much better, but it takes awhile to recover fully (I know that sounds confusing, but trust me). Good news. As a bypass survivor when I was 40, I always like to hear about successful outcomes. :)

WOW, what a day does of recovery.
She is now on her feet, moving to her lounge chair and eating solid food.
She is still in ICU, only because there are private room issues.
She should have her own room tomorrow.
She looks BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!
Strong young Lady.

I know how hard it is to lose a parent. I lost my mom in 2007 to Alzheimer's, and my dad to a heart attack in 1998. I wish you the best in your mom's recovery.
