Whew. Just got word that the surgery was a success and he's now recovering. Woohoo!

Hey, thanks LF68 for updating for me..

Crazy, was just supposed to be stint... went from that to triple bypass.. then they cut him open, and it becomes quintuple. Crazy.

Just wanted to thank you guys again. He's in the ICU tonight and still has an oxygen tube... but all vitals are looking good.

Anyhow, I just wanted to thank you guys for your best wishes. Myself and my family, we really appreciate it, thanks!

I'll see you all on Monday!

Thanks PS, I appreciate it... and that last statement, nobody knows that as well as you!

(Save a Neumann for me... hah! ... or just a beer.)

Thaddeus -
Neumann's are on me this Monday - and you won't even have to wear your Bayern Munchen jersey!
Just wear your DeMyron jersey with the sideburns ("and they're very attractive" as the Knuckleheads would say)

Hell yeah!

Actually, Juergen came through with a German national team jersey... Michael Ballack, as promised. I can't be happier (as Ballack no longer plays for Bayern Munich... and besides German national team jerseys rock)!

And I have replaced my Martin with a Willis... as Juergen has the Martin... but his sideburns are, indeed, very attractive.... but I'm going with the guy who "just keep scoring...."

All right, update - the father unit is doing well - recovering nicely, is lucid, and has no recollection that any of us were there last night. Which is of course expected.

I'm heading back to the hospital in a few. Thanks again.

In that case, please let him know I spent the night at his bedside last night and had to leave just before he woke.

Oh, and I'll remind him that Albert Pujols and Scotty Rolen stopped by with the World Series Trophy last night, too.

And that was very sweet of you, sir.

ASk him if he enjoyed the chocolates I sent him yesterday. They were very pricey.
