Thanks for the update, Larry...and to everyone who knows more about the process, for helping us to not worry. Too much.

It took me four days for my heart rhythm to settle down. It hasn't missed a beat in the last 12 years, except for when I leaned a bit too far forward at Charlie's Bunion.

I've quickly browsed the thread over the last 2 days. The Bugs have LW, Gypsy and all in our prayers.

Get back and be obnoxious soon!

**BobTheBuilder** · 03-03-2009, 23:05

God bless and get well, LW. I look forward to meeting you this fall instead of this spring.

Hang in there Wolf we're all pulling for ya buddy.

Just back from the hospital. Gypsy also sent my daughter Elena home, and is staying in the room with Wolf tonight. The nurse has been very comforting to her, very reassuring. It seems from the bits and pieces we pick up that Wolf's heart stopped three times tonight, but now he seems more stable and resting well. He will be given something to help him sleep. Many of you on this forum have professional expertise on Wolf's condition, and I think Gypsy would appreciate speaking with you. The surgeon who did the operation is excellent medically but does not have good communication skills, and Gypsy seems frustrated by a lack of information. Footslogger, Hooch, Weasel, others of you seem to have clinical knowledge which might be helpful to her. Contact me, grsmith07 @ gmail.com (remove spaces) if you want her number. Also please keep in mind that doctors and friends are advising total rest for Wolf for the next few days.

Hang in there LW, and you too Gypsy. There's a whole lot of goodwill aimed in your direction, breathe it in deep and let it strengthen your hearts.

I'm a relative newbie to WhiteBlaze (about 3 months). I have always been impressed by Lone Wolf's expertise in so many different areas, his numerous "smart aleck" comments, and his ability to say so much in just of few short words.

(Unfortunately, I am just the opposite. I say almost nothing and I take so many darn paragraphs to not say it!).

Hang in there Lone Wolf and Gypsy. This poor country preacher from Illinois (and former chaplain in a cardiac care unit) is praying for you!

Then all of a sudden Gypsy said "gotta Go!"

Scared me to death, and I immediately started praying! Then called Rock. Who told me to call The Only Wanderer or someone in Damascus. TOW called over to the hospital... sure enough, my fears were confirmed. LW is now back in CCU. According to what TOW just told me LW is stable, but they are still working with him.

Will keep y'all updated as I get the updates.

i went v-tac then v-fib. rushed my big ass back to CICU. shocked me back to reality. sorry dixi

Excellent. We're looking forward to the day when you walk out of that big shelter, and get back to your own tent.

Hmmm...I think getting your heart going again took precedence over a phone call.

Anyway, since you're posting, you must be doing (much!!!) better. Keep it up...

**D'Artagnan** · 03-04-2009, 07:51

Rest and take care of yourself. You gave us all quite a scare there. Looking forward to seeing you back in Damascus real soon. Only hoping the best for both you and Gypsy!
