Alan
Sorry to hear of your wife's health problems and am sending best wishes for
a speedy recovery. Its almost miraculous what they can do with bypass
surgery now. I have heard so many positive stories resulting from these
surgeries lately and I think most of us know of somebody who has had this
procedure with good results.
