I can say for fact that 45-70 is alive and kicking. In fact, I broke the house rule a couple of times with him last night...don't make him laugh. Coughing isn't fun either so he says and I can believe him.
He had open heart surgery for clogged and collapsed arteries, cracked sternum, heart and lung machines, the works. I don;t recall if he had 8 or 12 bypasses. Perhaps he will enlighten us.
He looks good, is above ground and breathing air, has more scars than a bear attack survivor, and his outlook on life is excellent. He is in good hands inside his warm open-fire heated home and headed for a full recovery.
