  On Friday, January 29, as I was on here joshing with another poster, he called me; I knew immediately that something was wrong.

  He'd been having mild discomfort in his chest, but had put it down to indigestion.

  The pains grew more severe as the day wore on.

  He called me around 1:15 pm; I drove him to the emergency room; 5:30 pm he was having bypass surgery due to a clogged artery!

  His doctor said it was a good thing that I got him there when I did.

  He's doing better now - chomping at the bits to get back to work.

  I'm so glad he's still alive!

  Wow, I'm glad he's ok! That must have been quite a scare for both of you.

  Keep us posted on his recovery.

  Thanks, Burn.

  He's a hard-headed Jamaican who's been urged to quit smoking.

  We'll see where that leads.

  Dig and Zoiks, it was a scare!

  Even though he and I are separated, I still care about him.

  He's a wonderful father!
