We are all wondering. I suspect that he needed more than angioplasty. If he got a couple of stents he would have gone home the same day, Monday or held over one night. He would have felt good enough to do some computer work/surfing. I suspect the blockage was in a place that they could not place a stent, so they probably took him in for bypass. You all know that means he will have a much tougher time with recovery and will need our prayers.
Does anyone live close to him?
Perhaps we could help we money for meals or some other tangible way to help him and his family.SteveS39015.5341782407

Good idea Steve.
I wonder if anyone here has a relative in the same area that we could enlist to bring a meal or two to his family. I'd be happy to pitch in some cash if we can find someone.

My impression is that he does live in Vegas. It doesn't say on his profile, but there is his email address.

I think sending some meals would be great. If we could get his street address, maybe the OLFers could send something through these people link They deliver in Las Vegas. I don't know how the food is, but I've seen their trucks in my neighborhood for years.

After looking over the Schwan site, they only deliver every two weeks to any one neighborhood.

Through some investigation, I was able to attain some contact information. I'm going to keep that private for obvious reasons. Let me know if you have an idea what we should or could do. If you want, PM or email me.

Sending food could be tricky as there are probably going to be some dietary restrictions.
