This lastTuesday night I could tell my blood pressure went up so I went to the hospital and sure enough I was in the middle of a mini heart attack according to them. So now I'm scheduled to have open heart surgery in the morning? Part of me is looking forward to getting this over with because the last couple years I have not had the strength and stanima that I once had, the other part is fear. One of the members that I'm selling a scope to was very understanding and he said he had the same procedure 14 years ago and after he healed up the doctor cleared him to go hunt and fishing in Canada! Not sure I can make it to Canada but just going out hunting and fishing sounds good to me right now, I hope I'm able to do the same once this is all over with....
It is not about what you kill, it is about the hunt....

Prayers for you, Pard.
Thinking that you’ll get through this quickly. Get back to us whenever you’re able. We’ll be looking for a report.
The degree of my privacy is no business of yours.

Hello sir. Are you going to have a CABG...? Are you gonna get it done there in the Clear Lake area or are you going to Houston...? Regardless, I’ll have some good thoughts for ya’. Please let us know when you’ve come through it and are on the mend.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Heart surgery is such a refined, safe and effective process these days. Your heart will be better before my shoulder will. You got this!

Good fortune. Anxiously awaiting your post-OP report on how it wasnt so bad and how you're ready to go fishing again. GOD bless.
