Dano....

....Saw your post over at HC.....Jeezus Dawg..I hope you're
taking it easy until you can get the surgery you need. We need
you here Buddy....Sounds as serious as it gets. :'(
Got a friend who had the exact same condition early last year.
it was like a month before they got squared away to do the
surgery. Pins and needles for a fucking month.
He came through just fine, I'm happy to report. It was about 2
months before he was really back to normal. Fortunately, it got
him to give up some bad habits, and he lost some weight. So all
is good.
It'll be good for you as well Bro. I'm sending all the Mojo I
got your way.....I just ain't gonna comment on this at HC. I
thought Mikeo's first post on the matter was poor dickdom. He's
an alright muthafucker most of the time. I was shocked at his
first response really. Then he went overboard on the "I fucked
up but won't say i did and here's this" post after that. but i
guess he realized he had been a bit insensitive and was trying
to right it.
he's alright....really a pretty gud guy.
I just hope you're being cool, and that you are going to be
looked after quickly and properly. Please keep us up tp speed
here at the Quiet Place.

Yeah, AJ, it's pretty serious. They discovered my bicuspid
aortic valve back in '11, when I had my first stroke---I had a
CAT scan of my lungs in October past, I guess that's when they
discovered the thoracic aortic aneurysm but nobody told me until
yesterday. Seems it's well beyond the size they would try to
fix. My aorta and valve have to be replaced with grafts.
Luckily, the two leading doctors in the world for this type of
surgery are at U of M Ann Arbor, 50 miles from here. Waiting to
hear WHEN.
My poor Cinny is all fucked up over this. Hell, I'm scared too.
Ah, Mikeo---ya know, I love the guy. But sometimes he can be
very insensitive and/or inappropriate.
Forumite: Hey fellas, I got this new guitar!
Mikeo: I have this and this and this and this and....(17 pics)
Sometimes the horny teenager bit gets old, too. But I'm not
gonna judge him too harshly. Mike hasn't a mean bone in his body
nor a mean thought in his head (that I've ever seen).
My current pissin' match with DeepEnds is something else. Who
does he think he IS? Wotta mook! I don't really care all that
much but it's kinda fun to wind him up and watch him go :D
Thanks for the support and encouragement, I appreciate it a lot.
This is gonna be exactly what it is, and I can only wait and
see. Consider: no male on my father's side has ever made it past
early 50s (my dad died at 48). I'm 61 this year. Way ahead of
the game!

...well....First and most importantly....I just hope that these
Docs can get you patched up and there are no side effects.
that's the most important thing. I feel for your Cinny as
well...When you love someone and there is danger, as clear and
present as you've got, it's worse than actually having it
yourself. Conditions like this, you just feel powerless to help
your loved one, and that is a hellish space to occupy. Heart
goes out to both of you. As I said..Pluuzzee keep me updated
here.
I'm glad you pointed that "Yeah well look what I got" thing
about Mikeo. I've seen his guitars and amps about a million
times. Enuf already! He is a nice guy though....Likeable.
DeepEnd is a preachy type. Religious. That's all good and well.
He gets kinda uppity with the science stuff though. gets in my
craw. I don't think he is nearly as smart as he would like to
appear to be. I've said a couple of snarky things to him and I
think he got the hint.

Forgive me if you already know this story.
"Ironmonger" (Pat) was a well-liked poster on HC some years
back. He and I got to be real friendly, talked a lot outside the
forum (instant messengers, phone calls, &c). We were also both
members of a now-defunct forum called "Live Ruckus". On 6JAN09 I
posted on LR that I was sad and depressed about some stuff that
was happening. Pat called me to offer support and encouragement.
That's the kind of guy he was.
The next morning, Pat's wife came on LR to tell us he had died
that night. His long-time heart disease overcame him. Besides
her, I guess I was the last person to talk to him.
Pat's widow's name is Cinny. Yes, that Cinny. Or should I
say,this Cinny. We struck up a conversation after he died, one
thing led to another, she moved here 27AUG11, we were married
27AUG13.
My initial heart failure/stroke was a short two months after she
arrived.
So she's already been through this shit ENOUGH! I can't help
feeling somewhat guilty for putting her through it more. Not a
thing I can do about it.
It's frustrating, I tells ya.

1st thing...No I was unaware of the story. I have only been
posting in Open Jam for about a year..At HC since 2013.
2nd thing..from your description of Pat..I think he'd be pleased
that you and Cinny found your way to each other. You're both
lucky to have each other, and you've been there for her through
a lot already.
We never know what life has in store for us. We all have shit
come down on us we don't expect. We all get unexpected blessings
as well.
We all get depressed at times. hell I sure have..You're gonna
make it through this...Cinny by your side...
Hell man..you can't die....You got a FK geetar coming your
way!!!!

Typically, but there are exceptions.
Papa D was the "gooodest" man I ever met, and he made to 87.

Thanks, man. :)
It's still a bit fresh, but to be honest, I'm sad, but I'm also
glad his suffering has ended. He struggled with dementia and
Alzheimer's for close to 18 years.
It was difficult to watch. I can't imagine what it was like to
be him. :shitsammich:
