Heart surgery for George W. Bush...
Former President Bush had heart surgery this morning to implant a stent
and circumvent a blocked artery. He's doing well. This is not President Bush the elder, but "Dubya." He's supposed to return home tomorrow. Let's hope he has a good recovery. Amazing, since Dubya is a known "exerciser," and it just proves that no matter how you live your life, this sort of physical crap can hit you. |

He was in apparent excellent health until we received a phone call from his wife one morning. He had a massive heart attack in the middle of the night and was gone in a matter of minutes. === It is fairly well understood that some people are genetically predisposed to very high cholesterol levels. If not detected and treated at an early age, they are very prone to early heart attacks. |

My ophthalmologist tells me I have a cataract in one eye, but that it's not bad enough for an operation yet. I'm wondering how bad it has to get. John (Gun Nut) H. Piece of cake. You have to decide if you want a distance lens or up close reading lens. I went the distance so I can drive Better at night. Was getting hazy, reflective lights. Surgery only takes about 20 minutes, but couple hours total. |
