I've been outta the loop here since July 18th. Hopefully I'll be back or a long, long, time.
On the 18th, I had a "mild" heart attack. On the 20th, the doc performed an angioplasty and afterward, he said he came close to losing me on the table. They staff got me stable enough to transport to the Cardiac center at Maine Medical. On the 30th they performed a 6-way arterial bypass. & hours on the table and a full 24 coming back to Earth.
I was released to my house yesterday, with a bag of drugs and a whole slew of directions, etc. Lots of time-killing things, those.
Anyway, my posting will be light for about the time that the season starts. Maybe a tad longer. I'm unable to use the 3 small fingers on my right arm due to nerve damage during the procedure. It will get better, but may take as long a 6 months to recover. Imagine hving to try and type if your right hand had gone to sleep. That's what it's like now. Sigh.
Anyway, I've had some lovely messages of support, and I just wanted to come on here and say "THANK YOU! for them, and to say how good it feels to be back here. To be candid, my whole body aches like after the end of the first week of training camp. But, it's all fixed and with a couple month's rehab, I'll be good to go.
So if I'm just lurking rather than commenting, now you know the rest of the story.
