Guy, I'll visit Saturday, thanks. The heart surgery was 5 coronary bypasses, one completely blocked, all went well and I expect to be surfing and kayak fishing again within a couple of months. It was a big surprise, I'm 45 in great shape and eat well. I've been training for a 640 mile bike ride at the end of October and was riding 200 miles a week with no problem. A couple weeks ago I started feeling tension between my shoulders with my heart rate over 150 bpm. Kayak fishing caused no problem, I was still going a couple times per week. Saw my doctor and then a cardiologist and they couldn't find anything. Went in for an angiogram last Monday and they told me I couldn't leave the hospital without open heart surgery. I kept expecting Ashton Kustcher to bust through the door and say I had been punk'd. All things considered I feel very lucky and just look forward to getting back out there. Life is good!
