Thanks for all the good thoughts brothers....
...I'll take all I can get.
I have a good health care team which is why even though I moved 50 miles from them I still make the the trek. My wife claims that it is because I didn't want to have to train new ones.[cl
Hope to have some answers this week but since I missed 2 appts for tests last week due to weather we will see.
Todays effort was focused on my mom and her needs. Tomorrow it's off to the retinal specialist for my eye injections.
I will keep everyone posted.
Thanks for caring.......

p.s. It's a balmy -3 outside as I type this...

Beautiful sunny day this morning. Only -10
The eye injections always freak people out jfg but it does help so off I go.
Best part is that it makes my eyes really bloody looking. Scares the **** out of people.

A Couple of pieces of good news..
The first bit of good news is that I didn't have to get eye injections today. Doc said that they were looking better. So no scary "red eyed devil" for this month at least.
Second bit is that My buddy called and he is dropping off the freshly turned Olds flywheel. He said that it had never been bolted up to a crank or used before. Just as the seller said. These flywheels are fairly hard to find as Oldsmobile didn't offer their then new Rocket engines with a stick. They thought that the engine produced more torque than their manual trans could handle.
I bought this fly wheel site unseen from a cat down in New Orleans and some times you just never know.....But he turned out to be a strait shooter.
Also had a call in regards to some flat head stuff I have for sale. If it goes I will use those funds to pick up the final piece that I need to bolt the drive train all together. A Wilcap adapter. [cl
Tomorrow is the biggie as I see the cardiologist. Hoping to have some solid answers to what is going on.
Keep good thoughts for me.......

Ok. So here we go.....
Quick version.....
Saw the Cardiologist today and I go in Monday for a Heart procedure.
Going to do a Cath and see what they find out. They wanted to do it tomorrow but I have my Mom's pacemaker change going on and need to be there for that. Since I appear to be stable[S they will let me wait until Monday.
And now from the "When it rains.It pours" file. Just got a call from my Brother in law alerting us to the fact that my father in law was taken to the same hospital as I was at all day and that he isn't doing well. My wife's mom never called us but called my Brother in law 300 miles away instead.
Now it's getting real interesting.
Keep the good vibes coming guys........ Can use them all.
