One last Update. John told us he was having a triple bypass. He had a quadruple bypass. I am sorry for posting all over

the board. But I had very little promises kept to me growing up. In my heart and soul I keep my promises. If anyone asks me for help I would do it, to the best of my ability.

I'm glad he's doing well. He's got a hill to climb in his post-op recovery but all our well wishes will sustain him.

when they finally get in there they notice another vein in distress. Might as well fix that while they're in there.

That’s what happened with my brother a few years ago. Went in for a triple and had a quadruple. He has always been an overachiever

I hope he feels peace, serenity, and healing energy. New thoughts and possibilities, moment by moment, day by day.

I appreciate you keeping your word. I call that integrity & I believe it is our most important dynamic.

How is he feeling?

I know with my mom they often had to do more than originally planned. Hearts and arteries are like wiring in a car. It's hard to see what needs to be done till you get in there.
