Best of luck to your family and your dad. Cousin had a triple two years ago and recovered suprisingly quickly.

Thad: I'm keeping your family in my thoughts and prayers. Hang in there, buddy.

Hang in there ├â┬ó├óΓÇÜ┬¼" we're all thinking about your dad and pulling for him. For what it's worth, my dad had the same thing, and I think the fear involved can make it harder on the family sometimes. All the best to your dad.

Thaddeus-
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God bless.

Hope to see you Monday - please stop by.

He'll be fine, after all, he's a Matula. I fully expect him to get out of surgery and make a joke about the hospital food.

Best of luck to your dad and the fam. I know everything will be just fine. And now your dad will have more energy to talk to me incessantly about things I have absolutely no interest in or any idea about. But I love him for that.

Thad, our prayers are with your family. I went to SMU with your brother and was fortunate to meet your pops once or twice. Here's hoping this surgery leaves him stronger than ever!

Ditto here, Thad...blessings and prayers be unto your dad, you, and the rest of your family.

Good luck. I think I had one of his classes for a day and then I dropped it, he seemed like a nice guy though.

Just got word that the surgery has now been deemed to be a quintuple bypass instead of triple. Please keep Mr. Matula, Thad and his family in your thoughts and prayers.
