Default RE: WACO YMF

Well, I had a little scare on Thursday night/ Friday morning. I was feeling some discomfort when I went to bed Thursday evening, and woke up early having Chest pain, and pain radiating down the left arm. Having had one major heart attack (5 years ago) I was not about to take this lightly. We went to the local hospital (one with a great cardiac group) and they immediately took me back and started running a series of EKG's. These tests were giving different readings, and that alarmed all of us. After undergoing a heart Cath. and finding no additional blockages (another good report), the initial chest X-Ray indicated some fluid in the left lung. This turned out to be a case of pneumonia, which is readily treatable with antibiotics. That along with some additional bed rest should have me back hitting on all 7 cylinders very soon. I appreciate the concerns, and good wishes.

Talked at length with Dik Watz last evening, and he is progressing nicely as well. We old Farts have to get well together.
