ArmyChief is in the hospital awaiting a double bypass

Thanks all. Blood count is still low, I had a stent installed for LAD.

Stomach bleeding (due to ibuprofen...military fix all drug)...so surgery will be in a few weeks
 
Hope you're back on your feet again soon.

Hang in there. Keep us up to date.
 
Wow!
Glad you are going to be ok man! Prayers for you!
 
Best wishes @ArmyChief for a full and complete recovery! And be quick about it, full tilt boating season is around the corner! (But please do be careful until they get the permanent fix in you!)
 
Get well soon @ArmyChief ... We are all pulling for you!
 
@ArmyChief, Kids Wife and I all have you in our prayers. Get well soon, nice to hear you're already on the mend.
 
Double bypass? Psh. Here, just take some Motrin.

j/k of course. Speedy recovery, @ArmyChief
 
I too wish @ArmyChief a speedy procedure and recovery. With all the boat season comments on this thread it sounds like you all don't remember that @ArmyChief was getting ready to deploy. Not sure how this medical issue affects those plans...but I hope it works out to his favor!
 
@ArmyChief prayers for a full recovery and more prayers for your family.
 
ArmyChief is supposed to go home today where he will relax for a few weeks while his ulcers heal. After they are healed up he will either have a bypass or stints installed. His deployment is off.

Okay, now we can say it....some guys will do anything to spend more time with their boats! Heal up quickly @ArmyChief and then spend some quality time with your boat and your family!
 
Army Chief; your too young for this. When its all done, lace em up (no pun intended) and get on the water. Prayers are with you and your family.
 
Get well soon @ArmyChief . We're all pulling for you.
