Title: A Word About Undies
Post by: Lord Undies on July 26, 2009, 06:23:08 PM
Dear Folks-

I had three massive heart attacks on Friday, July 17th.  I have been in ICU since.  I will have (at least) triple bypass tomorrow morning.

Say a little prayer for me.

Undies

I did almost the same thing 13 years ago. I hope and pray things go well for you.

As the ER doctor said, major/major heart attack, got me stable enough to ship out to another hospital..... to critical for them so I laid around there a couple of days until stable enough to ship out to another hospital....laid around there until stable enough for surgery.....still had my dirty clothes on when they took me down for surgery....hadn't eaten or slept much for 5 days....still hurting like hell......I had so many blockages they didn't know what to do....I told them "angioplasty" save those leg arteries for when I really need them.... had angioplasty and came out of surgery hungary as hell....ate a big meal and felt great.....The doctors have been amazed at me. Very little heart damage, still ticking and kicking even though they've been after me for 10 years to have a pacemaker put in.

Hope you're not as dumb as me........ but at least as lucky.

I NEVER come to the lounge..... usually have tunnel vision for the DUmp.

Crap!  I so hope you are doing much, much better and are on your way to a speedy recovery!  This place would never be the same without you and your witty repartee.

Are you near Tyler? I have a vascular surgeon cousin in Tyler....... I could make calls.... I could.... Who am I kidding? I haven't seen him since I was twelve.

You have my prayers!!

How about every time I get a email of a reply to this thread, and thinking that it's word from Undies, I go to it and when I see that it's not him, I am reminded to say one then and there.

Before sleep is good too.

I've got to go wipe my eyes.  Something in them now.

I am expletive-not-needed glad that you made it through this well.  God works in mysterious ways.  Sometimes, He uses another's hands.

Give Thanks to The LORD, for He Is Good; His Mercy Endures FOREVER.  While I'm cantoring at my church tomorrow, I'll be thanking The Thrice-Holy God for the surgeon and his skill.

While I was away near Buffalo this week, one of the accountants in my unit had some chest pains Wednesday afternoon.  Our unit lost a computer programmer to a massive heart attack about a year-and-a-half ago, so he was a bit more attuned to the pains.  When he got to a hospital a couple of hours later, his cardiologist found one cornonary (sp?) artery 95% blocked and another 90% blocked (and a third at 60% blocked).  Four stents went in--two to an artery with the major blockages.  He was released Thursday, and was back at work Friday morning.  I was shocked.  Didn't look the worse for wear.  'Course, he's a tad miffed that he can't golf this morning, but he said that he'll get over it.

Should we draft a stern letter to that effect?   Or maybe start an online petition?  :-)

But I agree Undies, I know you are laying low, but if you could drop a line every day, or couple of days, in just so we know all is ok, it would let some of us rest easier!

I hope to one day soon have the energy to write down this sordid/fascinating medical tale.  Right now I am just busy being a good boy.  I'm eating what I'm suppose to be eating and respecting every physical limit placed upon me.

I'm doing OK for a dead guy.

My brother and his wife came to our home last Sunday afternoon.  We almost never see each other.  I know my S-I-L had it figured in her head that I would be parked on a hospital bed in the corner of the family room.  She was very surprised when it was I who answered the doorbell.

I am such an asshole. I never noticed this till tonight. I apologize for not getting on here and sending prayers to you and the family and hoping you make it through. Its of course obvious tha tyour well now but it still doesn't make up for missing out. My father had the same thing happen to him over 30 years ago and I know that it takes forever to get back up to speed. I am truly sorry for not getting to this sooner.

Thank you.  You are right.  I feel good.  I sometimes forget I would be dead without the drugs.  It does take a long time to piece life back together.  Right now, it is as if every aspect of life is dominated by what happened.  I hate that.  I want normality.

All in good time.  Praise the Lord.  And praise the Power of Prayer.   :p
