He is doing much better. More procedures tomorrow. He is in York, Maine. I sent some friends the phone number there yesterday and their switch board lit up. The lady answering the phone said, "What's going on? Who is this guy?" HA!
Not many people know this, but he was involved in a head-on collision at age 20 when a drunk driver came across into his lane at high speed. Broke his steering wheel off and the streering column busted his sternum among other things. They suspect scar tissue from that incident was part of the problem, not to mention being over weight, etc.
I'm the one who is really screwed though. This means I will now have to hang all his stands, drag all his critters and probably have to go get the truck anytime he has to walk up hill from here on in :>(
-
Prayers sent for a successful procedure and a quick recovery! Amen.
God bless, David Camp

Thoughts and prayers for Barry. And now Gene, you're with me. I'm the only one who hasn't had a heart condition and I do all the carrying, dragging, hauling etc... "I can't do that, I'm a heart patient!" Don't get fooled by the trickery of old men :^). God's speed for a quick a full recovery.

Gene, that's why they make ground blinds. Just pop it up by the road for him. I have a brother and thats what I would do. :biglaugh:
-
Hard to know what to say. It's just sad to hear the news and Laura and I both wish you the best. I had eye surgery at York. Great little hospital and very talented docs. He is in very good hands, folks. York has docs that do a lot of work in Boston so you know he has access to the best there is.
-
Get well soon,prayers sent...

Speedy recovery!!

I'm mostly concerned about the condition of his underware when they admitted him. He routinely packs pictures of what looks like bacon strips in the bottom. I've seen them.... from a distance

Barry,
Listen to the docs, my twin has had 4 of those, the first one almost took him. Get some weight off and get fit, you will be fine, amazing what taking a little weight off can do for you, believe me I know. Best of wishes.

I see that Mike and Gene have posted here, but I thought I would post these comments from Mike Mitten that I received this morning.
Chuck,
He will be glad to hear from every one. In the hospital, the switch board at the nurses station is lighting up with many calls. The nurses ask, "Just who is this guy anyway?" LOL
I hear he is doing good. They did not find any blockage or anything. He will not need any clot busters or any procedure for stents or angioplasty. The only thing they found was an irregular beat- the atrium are out of sync with the ventricles. His heart may be enlarged at the top. He is expected to make full recovery and he is feeling very well now. The Doc even encourage him to get on with life including going on his annual spring bear hunt. He will have to have a change in diet etc and take some meds, but Gene said he is doing fine.
Thanks,
Mike
-
A speedy recovery to you ! As many have mentioned it was a warning call time to listen to the body. We all want many more years of bad jokes and good writing, all the best to you, Joe
-
Will be remembering Barry in prayer!
L.D.

Good thoughts your way Barry.

Gene,
Of course our thoughts and prayers are with Barry (and the nurses).
Also, if I draw an Iowa tag, I'd of course make the sacrifice to hang Barry's stands and personally verify that they were set correctly during the first week of November for him by testing them (I may have to add a few pounds to match up properly-but I can do that too). You're probably already reaching for the stationary to hand write a thank you to me for taking this load off your plate, but no need, that's what we fellow bow hunters are willing to do for each other.
Best regards,
Ray

Barry,,, the new spread through the baltimore shoot like wildfire. You are in all our prayers and thoughts, get well soon.
Oh yeah,,, I know a homeless chef from New Jersey who can cook up those bacon strips for ya.
-
Gene, getting the truck, hanging the stands, dragging the bucks sounds rough but just think of all his share of good food you can deny him! For his health of course! On a serious note I'm glad he's recovering well.
-
Prayers sent and thanks for the updates.

Praying for Barry's for and complete recovery!

I go to the baltimore trad shoot for 5 days and come home to see all this! :(
Best wishes for a full recovery for BOTH brothers of the bow!
One for his health and the other for the burden of carrying and caring! :)
Be well Barry! Take things in stride, Gene!
-
Get well soon, buddy. :pray:

Barry, rest up and take care of yourself. I'd like to see you and Gene in Kansas hopefully next year. Don't worry we'll do all the work for both of you, you'll just have to shoot.
Gene, February in Harrisburg, while I was talking with Barry we overheard you mention to someone about having your knees operated on the end of April. Barry looked at me and said, "that's the first I've heard of that, guess I'll be doing all the work this year." You don't suspect this is an elaborate scheme to put the load back on you?
Get well soon Barry!

Positive thoughts for Mr. Wensel from MT.
-
UPDATE on Barry. He regressed last night due to some sort of reaction to one of the meds. Chest pain, new cough and difficulty breatheing. He had a busy day today. They did cardio conversion and esophageal scan. No clots and his heart is back to regular sinus rhythm now. He feels like a new man and probably will get booted on Wednesday. They are trying to get medication stabilized. Targeting blood sugar levels first and then his sleep apnea. The docs said sleep apnea was a major factor. Thank you one and all.
-
Sounds like Barry is on the right track Gene. Thanks for the update!! Continued prayers!

Prayers from Texas. Get well Barry!

Hoping for some more good news along the way!

Anyway. Feel better big man! Lots of people here pulling for you! If I can help in any way just holler!

Get a CPAP Barry, I put it off for years. I now sleep like a baby and do not snore, best thing I ever did IMHO. I used to fall asleep anytime I sat down for even a short time, always felt tired, even driving was a pain because I would be nodding off even on a very short drive. With sleep apnea you stop breathing and wake up, never getting a good sleep, it takes its toll on your body. Forget getting in a treestand. Get tested and get the machine, you will not regret it. Prayers continue.

Continued prayers from Ga on the way for a full and quick recovery....

Hope and pray that Barry has a full recovery. I suppose this means he will not be able to attend the first week of Bear Quest. Get well soon UB.
