Nicole, Thanks for sharing this.

Bill, Please don't laugh because it's gonna hurt. Lift up your gown and see if the doc patched you up with a can of glass cleaner.

Wishing you a 200+ MPH recovery,
jon

Get outta there before they tell you, you gotta stop playing with those 928's
and go buy an (old people) car like an Oldsmobile Mini van ! yikes !

Bill continues to make progress. He is still in intensive care, but was out of bed for a little while today (sitting in a chair). He has nurses looking after him, who are very experienced with cardiac surgery patients. It sound like he is in the best hands he can possibly be for what he's going through.

Thanks, everybody, for your thoughts, prayers, and verbal jabs. I'm sure, Bill will enjoy reading your comments as soon as he can.
