man gettin old is tuff. Everytime it seems something good happens, something bad seems to follow. I got asked to do a New Years Eve gig.....cushy gig, good pay....come to work this morning to find out a good friend of mine was rushed to the hospital and underwent emegency surgery for a aortic tear. Got out of surgery this morning and he is not doing so well. I wish I could at least go a week without having some sort of bad news.........sorry to include you all, but its just been one of those months.

bummer. Accident?

 

 

he had an annurism(spelling) on/near his heart, and it caused the aorta to tear. they started surgery last night and finished about 11 this morning. Really sucks, this is one of the good friends I had stand up with me in my wedding some 18 years ago. Im heading down to check on him after I get off here in half hour. Good men with familys and young ones dont deserve this crap.

 

Your right tho fitch.....gonna put myself in a positve mood when I go down there....family is going through enough than to see my depressed face.

Thanks everyone......I went to visit Jim last night after work. surgery went well. It was a little over a 7 hr surgery. i did get to see him. hard to look at your friends while they are on a breathing machine and multiple tubes coming out of them. I got news this morning that they have removed him from the ventilator and are planning on removing some other tubes this afternoon and possibly setting him up later. My understanding is that they replaced the tube out of the top of his heart. the replacement was made of some type of cardboard and a mesh compound. Man they will use anything to keep you kickin. He is not out of the woods yet. the next couple of days will tell alot........thanks for all the prayers, vibes, thoughts and mojo!!
