And Bam! it is. I have been watching the updates on your woodworking over time and admiring your work and energy. Sorry to hear that you had a rough Sunday, but glad to see you back so soon. Hang in there.
I hope you are able to get back to the boat soon, good medicine.

I will also wait for RT to get you going.

What a story! So glad you are doing so well. You must have excellent emergency care in that area. Did you go to Jackson or Memphis? Don't push it. William will be there waiting.

Some folks complain the younger generation just don't get it....
Wrong, the medical system today compared to say 30 years ago.....
Glad it worked out for you, follow the doc's orders!! And get the boat finished!

Glad you are doing so well, and so soon.

My daughter and her medical school roommate are just finishing up their second year. Both will be doing their rotations starting in July at Memphis. They are visiting us on the boat down here in Stuart, FL and ALL they do is study. The medical care in Memphis is bound to get even better! Howard (a proud papa.)

Happy you're back so soon. My heart episode put me five days in intensive care. (Hated having IVs in both arms.)

Dang. Right in the middle of the winter project, yet. Can't get it why you had it in the first place, but sure happy to hear that you're recovery is rapid. Are you sure about going back to the boat so soon. It's a good excuse for a vacation.

Glad to hear you are ok. Life is short. Some would lay about at home and bemoan their luck. Others realize they don't have time to waste. Good for you!

Stents are great things, but take a couple of days & don't do any heavy lifting; they need a bit of time to settle in place. Glad to hear you are doing well

Glad you back so soon, but hope you don't rush it. Clots are still a risk. I hope you listen to your doc and take a long boat ride. Both can slow the world down a bit.

Hope your good health continues to improve.

Great job making it through all of that excitement in one day, and for coming back to TF to tell about it.

Now get better so you can get back on the boat.

Glad to hear of your fast recovery, kick back and relax for a few days. Thanks for reminding us all that good health has to be #1 on the work list. I used to think a half days work was 12 hours, now it's 3-4 hours and take the next day off.

Thanks everyone.This was not my first go with the heart thing ,but this one hurt like a muther .I had one stent put in about 12 years ago and then a triple bypass nine years ago.This blockage was in one of my bypasses .I don't smoke and never have .I drink a little rum and some red wine . I'm a bit intense when it comes to getting something done and I don't manage stress very well. Those are the things that need some work .These stents do make you feel a lot better real quick .Thanks for all your kind wishes. I'm ready to get back to boat talk .
