OK, so the month doesn't start off so good. Pat has to go in for an angiogram. What? The "Mr. Fit Guy" has a heart problem. Anyway we'll keep you all updated as the process goes by. It's good that we discovered this before a heart attack though. It's just bad genetics on Pat's side of the family. ....OK, soPat's heart is better than expected. Despite his family's history and genetics. The Angiogram showed that Pat didn't need a stint or a bypass. He has to heal for about a week and then he's back on the slopes along with eating better and taking some statins. Thanks to all the good friends and great family for the support and good thoughts..... We love you all and a special thanks to Dr. Terry Moran. Pat knew there was a reason they been good friends since 1961. Another high point of the month was the send off party for grandson Zack. He's going to Iraq.... Stay safe Zack. We love you ......
