It's good to be alive

A brief note, back on the health topic. I’m up at 4:00AM, at the hospital at 5:00 for a double bypass. Not looking forward to the recovery, but it’ll be nothing compared to Charlie’s stones and will be nice not to be dying of a heart attack. I’m glad they caught the blockage - never had any heart attack symptoms, just very occasional light headedness. Fortunately my doc decided to order a stress test and a bunch of tests later they said this is necessary (and showed me all of the pictures - it was easy to agree).

If they don’t croak me in the hospital, I’ll be checking back in a few days. You all take care.
