Destroyer - I’ll definitely be reading those articles. With a new and probably my one and only grandson, just 8 months old, I’m very motivated to get to peak performance (for a lot of years). My grandfather, the carpenter, furniture maker, boat builder (the one I really identified with) died of a heart attack just when I was getting going as a very green young carpenter and it kills me that I didn’t get the chance to learn from him. I want to be there for my little guy as long as I can be useful, and of course do some other things too.

The doc said after the heart fix, I’m good for 30 years - that would put me at 104. That seems about right

Thanks

Destroyer, I read the articles and will wring out my doc when I see him soon to check on any possible interactions with all of the stuff they’re giving me, which is kind of a lot right now. You can almost see the lawyers looking over their shoulders when they were writing about that stuff.

Came home today - thanks again for the prayers. Got on the couch, got a couple of phone calls out of the way and all of a sudden my eyelids each gained about 100 pounds and I couldn’t keep them open. Napped for about 3 hours ate dinner, washed off the hospital and just hit the sack. I can’t say enough good about the hospital staff but it’s really nice to be home.

Long road back to previous strength but it’s nice to be on that road.

Great that you're back home. you should recoup much faster there, and much more comfortably too. Prays sent for your continued recovery.

Scott, are you going this year? We're driving from La Grande on Wednesday early enough for the opener and then home late Thursday afternoon. I'll buy you a Lipitor shake with a side of Mylanta if you're around. Let me know.
