Well, here's a prayer but you won't need it. My dad had the second open heart surgery in Texas. If I remember it wasin 1969 or 70. Dr. Michael DeBakey flew in from Houston with his team of 15 assistants. 17 pints of blood and 11 hr's later they finished. If he could live thru that medival experimentation I know you'll make it. I gotta go say a prayer now, but good luck anyway my man.

Barry,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. This is almost out-patient surgery these days - you will be fine. Please give us an update when you are ready.

Best of luck,
Ken

All great thoughts and prayers are with You!

I've had the same thing happen to me 2 years ago. I feel great. Watch your diet and excercise and you'll be ready for you next project!

My dad had a quintuple 7 years ago. I asked the doctor afterwards what to expect. He said the fuckers live forever after a bypass. Said it like that.
My dad's the same PITA he always was.

Prayers launched. Now that your tuneup is done (assuming you're out now) I'm sure you feel much rejuvenated... maybe a little sore.

Hope you're surrounded with loves.

My father had a triple bypass about four years ago and a stint last month, he will be 80 this year. He is still going strong. He looks and feels much better after the surgery.

Hurry back, The weather is starting to get better so I'm going to start working on the teener. I'm bound to have questions. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) My families thoughts and prayers are with you.
