Radriano in hospital (May 2006 - he's out now)

Radriano checked into Stanford hospital last week with abdominal pain. They found a kidney stone, and in the process also found a blocked artery in the heart. The stone passed a couple of days ago, and a tube was inserted into the artery, with a balloon which widens the artery and allows blood to flow smoothly. He should be home at any time. Needless to say, he won't be going to Seattle with me this week to sing at the NW Folklife Festival. Any good wishes you'd like to send him here, I'll pass them on to him (he won't have computer access until probably next week). He's doing well, considering all that's happened. The good news is Richard doesn't need any invasive, major surgery. Thanks, everyone.
