> SPECIAL NOTE FROM YOUR EDITOR. I guess many of you were very surprised
> (as were my family, friends and myself) when you first heard your editor
was
> going to have unexpected open heart surgery on December 7th. This actually
> all began during the first full week of November (Friday the 8th) with a
> simple "stress test" which finally lead to a heart catheterization. During
> the time between my operation and the stress test I learned one very
> important health fact: Diabetics (which I am) usually do not feel heart
> pain. Also, between the time of my stress test and operation, I have been
> asked by several doctors the question: "DO YOU FEEL ANY HEART PAIN OR HAVE
> YOU EVER FELT HEART PAIN?" My answer was always NO! However, the heart
> catheterization showed something that I was not feeling. I had four
> blockages in the left anterior descending artery (some 70-80% and some
> 80-90%), however, the heart muscle and the other two arteries were in good
> shape. Four stents could have been put in but the doctor felt they would
> not last and my best option was bypass surgery. A rare Saturday morning
> operation was done on me to correct the problem. I had a double bypass
> on the one artery (a vein taken from my left leg and an antery from by
chest
> area). The impression before and after the operation I received from all
> the doctors and nurses was that I was a walking time bomb. Just think,
> the week before the operation I was shoveling show, climbing my tower and
> working hard at work unloading and climbing railroad cars (I work at a
> lumberyard).
> Let me say that I am fine now. I have lost some 22 pounds and naturally
> I am weak and tired, but I am recovering very well (because I am 50 years
> young) according to the doctor. This operation has done a lot to me
> phyically, mentally and emotionally. My wife (Linda) was especially a real
> big help and strong during all this, as my brother-in-law and his wife.
> I also want to thank the MANY who E-mailed me get well wishes, cards and
> flowers. Believe me the E-mail was overwhelming (over 12 meg when I
returned
> home) which included some 300 get well wishes. It took me four days to
> catch-up on all the E-mail. It was truly touching, and I did not realize
> how many friends I have throughout the ham community. Thank you all. Also,
> a special to John/K8YSE, Carl/K8AV and Dave/WB8APD for keeping the DX
> community informed about my condition.
> Finally, my family (wife/OPDX's chief proof-reader Linda, Teddy [TJ],
> Katie) and I (KB8NW) would like to wish all DXers, Contesters and OPDX
> readers a very "Happy Holiday and Season's Greetings". Also, we would
> like thank the many who have contributed information over the year (there
> are too many to list). REMEMBER, without them there would not be an OPDX
> Bulletin. I would also like to thank the many who sent holiday greetings.
> I tried to answer some and wished I could answer each one of them
> individually, but it would take a huge amount of time.....
> 73 and Have a Great Holiday de Tedd KB8NW
>
> P.S. Now for a little DX. I hope to be in the full swing of things
> next week..........
