Handy thank you for asking about me. My surgery (triple bypass) is scheduled for the 24th. I am in the process of getting all the pre op tests done and not going to the hospital until next thur as the covid19 procedures call for no one other than the patient being in the hospital.
Honestly, I couldnt be without her for over a week, so opted to get every test done prior to being admitted next thur.
It is a scary thought for me but with God's help and prayers from my friends, it should go ok.
Thank you again for asking..

We are polar opposites politically, but that is meaningless play stuff. Sickness is real life and I'm firmly in your corner my friend....Wishing you the best possible outcome.

Best wishes and prayers for you! As to you turning into a liberal... ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) They are operating on your heart, not your brain!
You turning into a liberal would be terrible... such a disturbance in the force would surely usher in the Zombie Apocalypse.

ukc my prayers will be with you.I hope all goes well.I just had total hip replacement 10 days ago.I am 67. I had all pre -op test also and of course a Corona virus test. I am in Bristol,tn. and the Hospital was very much focused on protecting it's patients. My wife could not go back for pre-op or recovery room only after I was in a room. My surgery was out- patient. I got to go home after 5 hours. Medical technology has come a long way.You will do well . God bless.

Good Morning all - I wanted to let all of you know that I had a very successful quadruple heart surgery on the 21st and just got released to come home on the 27th. Still have a lot of recovery to do but being home with the wife makes it 100% easier.
I appreciate all your prayers (they helped me immensely) and asking about me.
I consider everyone on this board "family" ( yes MM you too) and so nice to be back.
I won't be posting but like to read the going on's. thank you ukcatfannfl ed w
p.s. yes I am voting for Reagan!

Glad you are recovering Ed. My wife had just one bypass along with several stents, in 2005. Had to sleep in her recliner for several weeks. Said when she laid down flat, it felt like her chest was opening up again.

Handy - good morning - some of the authors my wife and I read are:
John Sandford
David Baldacci
C.J. Box
Lee Child
Greg Iles
If you haven't read any of their books, let me know and will go into a little more detail about who they write about etc. Good entertainment, light reading but all good authors..

Mel, you should feel very good about yourself. You are one of the very few UNC fans who can actually read. 😀
John Grisham along with Stephen King are probably my favorites. I’ve read all of their books along with Sanford and Baldacci.

Tip - Clancy is (was) a great author. Too bad he is no longer with us. His books are great however, another author keeps his name alive also.
Vince Flynn was also a great author. He passed away way too soon but as above, another author keeps the "Mitch Rapp" series going. I recommend this series to all you guys.

Mama is a big fan of Clancy. That woman reads constantly. I can't tell you the last time I read anything other than a woodworking magazine...I get bored too easily...can't sit still long enough to get interested.

I'm with you, MM. Reading makes me yawn. Yawning makes me sleep. But honestly, why read a book when you can just watch the movie.
