Update on Dick.....12/31

[Dan Shapiro]

Richards update
It was a busy weekend. Richard had a few staples in his chest to aid healing. Better than going in and re stitching him up. Sternum is not separated
He then had his heart shocked Sunday. He had an irregular heart beat. They put him out and zapped him and it is pumping fine. Today we got him into a Williams facility. Valley West rehab. It’s an acute rehab where he will be for a few weeks until he can come home. I am getting the stair climber installed weds. That will be great for both of us.

I knew a man who had the paddles put on him while he was still conscious. He said that was the worse pain he had ever experienced.

Have some friends and family members who had pacemakers installed to cure the irregular heartbeat. They work great.

Thanks for the continued updates.

Well, I've been pretty worried and I still am. But it sounds like maybe you'll be coming out of this mess in better physical shape than you were the day before it happened. Meaning they've repaired a lot of stuff that was building up unnoticed. That's always a good thing.
Relax and do whatever the Dr.'s need you to do. Heal with time. Keep relaxing. Finish that chapter in your book. Go ahead and eat that Chocolate gooey brownie. Drink whole milk and eat real butter. I do.

Great to hear from you Dick! Wishing you a full recovery.

Yikes! Get well and live some more, OK? I don't want to be the last man standing, with no one to talk to.
