Gonna have surgery this Friday

-
Stand strong. Pullin' for you and your family. Semper fi
 
Tony, got the same thing done last year. I'll be thinking of you. Ask your Dr if they can implant the MRI proof unit. It may save you a world of grief later.

Good Luck!
 
Tony, You know you will be in our thoughts and prayers. Is the procedure done on an outpatient basis? We'll be waiting for you to get back here ASAP and maybe you'll consider changing to PS in the future. I'm so happy my car got converted.......then Thelma can drive it too.....:burnout: :tongue10: :bootysha:
 
Yes, outpatient.
Procedure is done on Friday and I should go home Saturday p.m.

Even with power steering I don't think she would drive it. I think
she had rather ride it it.
 
Sending positive energy for a speedy recovery..............
 
Prayers sent for you brother :coffee2: and to the doctors to use the wisdom they have been given to repair and do this procedure [-o<
I know you have many friends and family close by but I will be there in spirit and prayer.
I am so glad I met Thelma and your friends, so I know you will be in great hands when you get back home :happy10:
Thelma I know you will make sure he follows doctors orders and make sure Tony don't rush the healing process and watch over brother with a strong stick to keep him to the prescribed healing time :hello2:
Tony It sounds like you have been down this road before and is familiar with it :shaking2:
So I send a prayer to humble your mind and keep stress out of your steps in life as you wait for Friday brother.... Keeping you, Themla and the doctors in our prayers here on the hill Treva, MeMikeJr, Creed and me for a complete and fast recovery Threw Jesus name we pray.

Know let me say good morning brother :hello2: What's on tap for your day today ??

Wishing you a speedy recovery Tony! Just noticed that the Doc said nothing about going quickly in a straight line :)

Best of luck Tony. Maybe have 'em put a zipper or something in this time. You're in our prayers! Dan
 
Our thoughts and prayers on the way for a quick and thorough recovery. Hurry back!

Had my defibrillator checked out the other day at the Doctors office.
Was told that one of the leads that goes from the heart to the
defibrillator is failing. Kinda like a plug wire jumping spark. It could
cause the defib to shock me when it isn't needed. These leads are
coming up on 20 years old. They are the originals that were installed
in 1992 when my first unit was installed.

They can't actually replace the leads as they are screwed and stitched
to the heart. They will remove the defib. that is in my abdomen and install
a new unit into my upper chest. The old leads will be left inside me. The new
leads will be inserted thru a vein and will "dangle" in the heart as I understand it.

This will be my 5th defibrillator to be implanted. The last one was in Nov. 2005

I may be off the puter for a few days after Friday. Will have to heal from 2 incisions this time. Won't be able to drive the 'Cuda for a while (no power steering). My son-in-law is going to drive me up to Indy in the 'Cuda on the 30th as The indy Mopar Club will be doing the JDRF walk.

Needless to say, we will be keeping an eye on the cars....not walking.

Tony.......... you my friend will be in my prayers.....
 
You are on my Prayer list Tony. Take care and do not let anything stress you out. Please send me a P.M. if you need anything,- Tom
 
Thanks all. I really appreciate the prayers and good wishes. Trying to
get some stuff done before Friday. Things like mow the lawn, tear the garden
down, detail the 'Cuda. My son-in-law and daughter are going to show it
on the 15th of Oct.

Thelma and I will celebrating our 41st wedding anniversary on the 15th also.:D

Thelma and I are best friends also and I think that's one of the strong
points of our marriage.

Thanks again!

I will keep everyone up to date after Friday.
 
Tony: Did you by chance ask the Doc if he could use new Accel 7mm Super Stock plug wires in place of those leads he is been using.
Congratulations on your up coming 41st wedding anniversary.

Best Wishes
Kenny
