Update on TrackT

[EX JUNK]

TrackT's wife just called to inform me that all went well with his open heart surgery. Once they opened him up they found that he needed a triple rather than a single bypass. He is resting well but not awake as yet and Sue plans to return after supper to check on him.

I am writing this update because Sue and Jim lost their internet connection because of the tropical storm Fay. Last night, Jim asked me if I would post for Sue and I am more than willing to be of help. I will post further as soon as I know more.

I'm thinking his doctor might be a hot rodder because this certainly sounds like he got a case of "Might as well as..."

Anyway... glad to hear the surgery went well and I hope his recovery goes well and is quick!

Stay tuned...

for an update from the man himself... TrackT. His wife, Sue, is taking her laptop up to him as he has a wireless connection in his room. She says that he is doing very well.

Jim,

Like I mentioned before, a buddy of mine just went through this... took them (doctors) about 10 days to get the right balance of proper medications for him to keep heart rate down, but not too low of blood pressure, and keeping his heartbeat correct... after 3 return trips to the hospital they seem to have finally got it right... He is on day 9 of being home without incident...

I'll be going by to see him today, he said it was OK to make him laugh today... I guess I made him laugh too hard last time...

I'm so glad to hear from you personally, Jim. Just take it easy, things will start to fall into place, after all, you have just gone through a very serious ordeal and you need time to heal.

Please keep us posted, we want to know how you are doing. Your buddy Jim did a good job of doing that for you early on and we appreciate that too.
