Tom, I had a triple 11 years ago at 50. Best thing I ever did. Wasn't too long before I was back on deck and working, but slowly, with immense help from my chauffeur (wife) for the first month or two. The important thing in the recovery process is to just changes gears smoothly. Four or five months after the op I hired a self-operated ditch-digger because I thought I could handle it. Don't. Apprehensive is good, you join a long list of apprehensives. And if it's any help, our oldest daughter was in the early years of med school at the time watching Dad's type of operation; she is now a pediatric specialist and she keeps me up to date with advances in the surgery Dad had, and it continues to amaze me at the changes and improvements in just 11 years. Be encouraged, from a predecessor ... Stephen Bond (And in the words of a get-well card from one of my dog-owning clients at the time ... HEAL!!) -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Tom Keatley Sent: Saturday, 25 July 2009 2:15 p.m. To: Stephen Subject: [AccessD] OFF TOPIC: Thanks for the assistance and I hope it doesntend here.................................. Hi all..... I have been a lurker on this list for more years now than I care to remember and many of you will remember answering my "sometimes" inane questions as I tried to learn as much as I could about Access. I have built a number of Access database's over the years that continue to help me earn an income and many of you are a part of those databases with little snippets of code here and there. I thank you all ....you know who you are. I am about to undergo a quadruple bypass (I thought it only happened to everyone else!!!!) and am suitably apprehensive (read apprehensive as BLOODY TERRIFIED) about the prospect. I have no doubt some of you have already experienced this too. I run a small family business that is heavily dependant on the aforementioned Access databases and should the worst happen to me in the operation my 31 year old daughter Kristal will be trying to take my place as Access database builder to keep our business running. She is a complete novice but I have just joined her on the list (in case) and have said she should make your aquaintance should she need to. I know you will render her any assistance she may need. Thanks people ....I hope to talk to you soon REgards Tom Keatley -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
