Hey Pepe!
I had a massive scare at the end of August- Major heart attack! I was at work, up on a ladder in the stifling heat and humidity, when it happened. My customer was right there with me thankfully, and phoned 911. I was ambulanced to the best closest hospital where they did an emergency angioplasty, and installed a stent to fix the 100% blockage of my right coronary artery. I actually had cardiac arrest two times in the ambulance and once in the surgery room!
Anyway, things are kind of back to normal and I'm feeling much stronger...
Still here!
Hope you guys are well.
So are you buffered or true bypass now
Glad it all turned out well!

There was no by-pass operation, so I guess I'm buffered. (In true Boss style)
Thanks man!

Really glad you are ok now. It must have been a frightening experience. The same thing happened to a good friend of mine when he was travelling on a bus - luckily he was sitting right next to a cardiologist!

Thanks man! Yeah, it sucked.
Wow, that's quite the coincidence that a cardiologist was right there with your friend!

And you were happy to have a customer right there with you! Imagine, what might have happened alone at home when the rest of the family is on a shopping spree. A few years ago friend of my former boss had a stroke while his wife was away. She found him hours later! He was a good drummer and I don't know if he has learned to walk or speak normally again.

That reminds me of when I was taking some classes in CNC machining. One of the instructors was a skilled machinist, graduated from an 8,000 hour apprenticeship program. Very skilled. He had an accident where a CNC mill cut off all four fingers of his left hand. He says realized it was a mistake when he did it but he doesn't remember it hurting. Luckily, the hospital they took him to had one of the top hand surgeons in the US, who was visiting there. He regained about 50% of the use of his left hand. The machinist profession isn't one for the accident prone or the faint of heart.
