Title: Prayers and suggestions
Post by: LONGSTYKES on June 30, 2016, 11:39:00 AM

Well I think my hunting season has been shortened. I had an emergency heart bypass surgery. Ride a bike for exercise to stay in shape after a knee replacement. For the last year and a half I have been having what I thought was cold air burning my lungs when I started each ride ( ride early mornings ). Wrong was angina. Doc was trying to put a stent in and found out that I had a 99% blockage of the right coronary artery. Life flight to Billings, MT and surgery on Friday the 24th of June. Home now doing real well. Does anyone have any experience his type of surgery and recovery. I am 68 and in excellent shape for my age. Thanks All

Based on my late brother's experience it will be a while before you can even pull a bow. Prayers up for healing.

Glad to hear you are doing well. Prayers for continued progress. Keep working, and hopefully, you will be able to hunt by late season.
