The surgery was reported successful. He is out of ICU now and in rehab, not home yet. Thank you for the prayers, and continue to pray for healing and good rehab. Standard recovery time is 8-12 weeks.

Update: the date he was to go home has been postponed, as he has intermittently had bouts of low blood pressure in rehab. They are attempting to correct this with medication, but he never had this problem before the surgery. Please pray that this will right itself and that he will not have to depend on medication to correct this long-term.

Update: Dad had been doing well, but today I learned of reports that he had blood in his urine and that ceasing to take one of the medications he is on, a blood thinner, apparently helped with that aspect of it. Calls and appointments have been made, but pray for his healing and for the doctors to know what's really going on and to make the right call.
