"I think our friend Ron will be okay. I'd be great if he kept us updated."OK; I've been home for a week, I can walk two blocks at a time now, saw the surgeon yesterday and he said I can drive now and do what ever I feel up too doing. I take my vitals every day and BP, pulse, and temp are fine. I still have some swelling in my legs (where they harvested blood vessels to use in the bypass) and some mild pain where my chest was cracked open. But I am able to do some light household chores and I feel fine. My main goal now is to lose some more weight. Thanks for asking. R-

Well, things seem right on track! Best of luck to you, hope you get to feeling better soon, and enjoy the extra time by doing some serious simming.RH

Glad to hear you are doing well! :) Enjoy the simming....and to make it more fun buzz some beaches while flying upside down in a 747-400 hee hee.

Best wishes Ron.Take care of yourself!

I wish you the best Ron, hopefully you have a speedy recovery. Flight Sim is one way to get back in action and it's important to keep your mind active.>Gee, I wonder if all those Halo and Doom players discuss>their heart attacks in their forums, lol. I guess FS tends to>attract a more mature crowd!(sorry for including this, but I just want to say a something on this subject -- ) As a halo, doom, half-life 2, etc. player... People do care. One of my friends just signed offline for the last time due to his cancer becoming too severe. Having a narrow view like that and thinking that all FPS players are immautre, isn't the most mature thing I've read.
