Just wanted to wish everyone here a Happy New Year. From what I'm reading it probably would have been lost. My new years didn't go very well. Fri. 12/31/10 1100am. Removing carpeting and floor panels to access water tanks. 1200pm moving section of floor out of way when I get stiff, can't breathe, did not like the feeling. 230pm gave up and went home had wife take me to hospital. Got home last night 1/3/11 @815pm. Turns out my boat ain't the only thing needing MAINTENANCE!!

Turns out my heart is less than 50% clogged so they are going to try to clear it with medications and just that. No stints or balloons.

Hopefully I can get back to working on the boat in the next couple of weeks!

All the best, hope the meds do their thing and get you hopping and jumping in no time. Thankfully you caught it before it was too late.

You need to take care of yourself first so that you can get better to work on that boat. Take some time off and get better.

Take it easy man - red wine, chocolate and aspirin are good for the heart.

Go easy for awhile and listen to your body.....stints and stuff are better than the alternative......good luck to you!

Allen,

Sorry to hear about your event! Now that you know about it, you have the opportunity to prevent it from getting worse and that's great.

Hope you feel better soon.

I would like to take the time to thank all of you for you caring and concern. It was a scare that I find very hard to describe. The upside is I have a Second chance at life and the oppertunity to do it Better. You know, quit smoking, cut down on the caffeine. I will be in shape for the round-up, cause I will be there. My Fleet Admiral has been giving me H@** since I got home so I better listen huh? Thank you all once more. Allen Sr.

Glad you caught it in time. Hope the meds work. I quit smoking almost 13 years ago. Hypnotherapy really helped.

Yes - time to give up the smoking - you'll fell a lot better once you get used to it!

Foofer - how's your "dingy project" coming along?
