Morning all,

MRI news is that I will be having open heart surgery in November to replace the main Aortic Valve.

The bad news is that I haven't done any modeling in two days

Have a great day ya'll.

Tom

Tom,

Went through that about 11 years ago. It'll be a tough first few weeks, but after that you'll be up and feeling a lot better. I know it's a scary thought having to do that surgery. Wish you the best of luck and a fast recovery.

Marty sorry to hear about your sister.

Tom , even if it isn't great news look at it from the good side , they know what it is and they can treat it, wishing you all the best for surgery and a speedy recovery, my heart is with you . I'm sure all will go well , it has to , cause I haven't seen your layout yet and I haven't met you yet , and I sure mean to do both.

Thoughts and prayer are for you  Tom.

Good evening! A late checking for me I just drove home from the Northern Hqtrs. I was on a fishing expedition to see if the Steelhead Trout were in the river yet. No fish but the worst mosquitoes I have ever seen.  I will try again after we have some frost and cooler weather.


Tom,  I'm sorry to hear that the results of your testing means you need surgery. Amy and I will have you and your family in our prayers.


Marty, sorry to hear about your sister. You and your family will also be in our prayers. The COVID regulations make a very hard thing much more difficult.  I know from first hand experience with the loss of my mother in March. We used FaceTime to communicate with my mother the last few days - it is not the same but it may be the only thing you have.
