John,
Please Inform the Gang that I will be undergoing an Angiogram on Mon, Oct, 11 @ 7:00 AM.
They have found a partial narrowing of an artery in my heart with associated muscle deterioration.
I suspect that I will need at least a stint so I might br A day or two depending on the severity of the process.
The Prayers of All of You Were Of The Greatest Assistance During My Last Medical Problems and I would Once Again Ask The Remembrance Of All Of You.
If You All Join In Ill Be Back To Hopping Again Very Soon. <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" />

My thoughts and prayers will include Viggo until he has a healthy return to his friends. He will be missed until then.

My prayers will be with you Viggo.

* Too many treasures yet to be discovered & deciphered.
* Your steady insight is a pleasure in the quest.
* Count on my prayers for your full recovery.
* We Brothers of Arms are with you...throughout.

Dear Forum Friends,
Billie (My Wife of 59 yrs), and I, want each of you to know how much we appreciate your Prayers!
Again Your Prayers are Answered and Again I have a Reprieve !
I myself was allowed to view the 3 D Computer Model of My Heart developed in My stress Test of only Two Weeks ago.
I myself observed the Degraded Muscle that comprised more than 15 percent of the surface of my Heart, To put it simply, On the Computer Model It had showed a texture similar to Dehydrated Freezer Burned Beef, Very Course Shriveled Stringy Muscle Tissue, And I observed the Narrowed Artery that supplied that portion of my heart muscle which was fully 70 % blocked.
Mon 11 Oct, 6:00 AM Finds me checking in to Linchburg General Hospitak Cardiac Pavillion for my Angiogram.
Todays Angeogram showed the same artery fully open and free flowing!
The artery that remains involved is a small artery that is too small to accomodate the smallest "Stint", which is 2 mm in dia. and of the size that most often responds well to medications and involves a mere 5 % or less of my heart.
To quote My Cardiac Surgeon, My report Is the best he has had to pass on to one of his Patients for Several Weeks.
Once Again I Have Been Truly Blessed, With an Answer to your Prayers.
May God Bless Each And Every One Of You!
Viggo and "Billie"
