I would like to ask for good thoughts and prayers for her and for sIx. She is doing okay last I heard, and sIx is doing "better", although still shaken up, of course. After loving someone dearly for 36 years, I expect it's a tad rough.

My thoughts and prayers to biLL and his bride.

Here is the post that stunned me...

I'm beyond grateful that my wife is alive and well after suffering a heart attack last Wednesday morning. I'm am also grateful for the excellent staff at the the Regional Hospital here in Saint John N.B.

That was a shocker and I'm sure a cause for Bill and his wife to focus even more clearly on all good things in life. Best to you both.

For those who didn't get my last reference, it's a take-off of the saying that the cartoon characters the Wonder Twins would say in order to call up their special powers {Wonder twin powers, activate!}

I think it's an appropriate saying to give to two people who have-as gnu wrote-loved each other dearly for 36 years. That's almost like being twins. And they probably get along better than some twins do.

Praying for a speedy recovery for "Mrs 6",

Having had some heart things, too, I know how scary it can be. I am most grateful she survived and look forward to hearing of her complete recovery. Lots of good thoughts and hugs for biLL and Mrs. biLL from Colorado.

sIx, you are due an ass whuppin' of the first order for not letting us in on this sooner!!!!! NOT!!!! You have had much more important things on your mind. I am very glad we know now, and we are all in full prayer, good thoughts, for you and the Missus. You know that we all care here, and listen to Spaw. You don't want him in charge of freshening the air in the room you are in, but when it comes to this stuff, he's a black belt.

All the best,

Thanks guys .... this is surprise that is very, very much appreciated.

It has been a rough and a bumpy few days needless to say ... with the unexpected heart attack compounded with allergic reactions to the meds ... but Ann (missus biLL) is much better and on the road to recovery ... her problem was one blocked artery which they immediately corrected with a stent, the other three arteries are and were running at 100 % capacity. She is in excellent shape health wise so the future looks good. I should add that she is a Scot and if anyone knows anything about Scottish women, they are tough. So she'll be up and about in no time keeping me in line as usual.

She is a wonderful woman, and I'm one lucky guy ..... we always have appreciated our life together but it will be even more appreciated.

Spaw said ... "You both have all my best for a return to whatever passes for normalcy as soon as possible. " ... yesterday morning Ann commented " I can't wait until we get back to normal, but one thing it's going to be a better normal".

again ... thanks guys, this was appreciated.

Had a few PMs... the reason I didn't start this thread earlier is because I knew sIx was "busy". I wanted to make sure that things were a bit "stable" before starting a thread. Not really my place to do sommat like that right off, okay? Heck, I didn't even PM sIx right away. And, as for PMing some of youse guys to alert youse, well, same deal, really.

In any case, continued thoughts and prayers from here.

Just an update here .... Ann is getting much better .... it's been a bit of a rough ride in the last 2 months ... she did spend another 5 days in the hospital after being rushed to the hospital (again) a couple of weeks back ... this was due to internal bleeding which was determined to be caused by the combination of the 2 medications Plavix and aspirin. This combo can be a deadly mixture to some people. If you know anyone who is prescribed this let them be aware.

This past Monday morning she took the 2 hounds out for their morning walked for the first tiem since her heart attack ... though it must sound rather mediocre and non-important it was a big deal for Ann. This is one of great daily pleasures in her life. Needless to say it sparked her spirits up a great deal and convinced her she is on the road to recovery and a normal life.

A big thanx to everyopne here in the Cat ... you prayers and best wishes were certainly heard and appreciated.

You guys are all a great bunch of people.

sincerely,
biLL

Walkies is VERY good news! Congrats to Mrs. 6 and the puppies and you! (Four years after a new heart valve, I count every little step as a daily victory in getting my body back in shape. Remind her that EVRYTHING physical counts for exercise...see what we post to the accountability thread!*bg*)

I am on coumadin aka warfarin and must be monitored for how thin it gets my blood. Because I seem to be sensitive to its effects, my docs took me off of aspirin as the combo was getting dangerous. I am glad she is okay!
