Glad you are OK.

If you need any surgery, let me know. I have been reading up and watching youtube videos. I also have some sharp knifes.

Ooo, Oooo!  What Michael said!  I have a PACE micro-soldering station with a minichine that can do anything!  I'd be glad to help.  Screaming doesn't bother me, either.

Seriously, Guido, I'm glad you're OK too.

I've got a real steady hand after a few drinks so I'll help out when needed.

Glad to hear the good news Tinman.

He did an ablation procedure on my daughter about 7 years ago.  I've never been so petrified in my entire life.  All's well and fortunately no follow-up was ever needed.

That's the guy Conan & T. Known him for some time. Most bizarre set of circumstances given how athletic I am and having ZERO symptoms. But for some reason, I actually feel better today.

Bwahahaha. The pacer I got is MRI compatible and I volunteered for a study on the new wire leads.

Dr. Sandler's name sounds familiar.  I think he installed my mom's pacemaker.  

By wires, are you talking about the internal to your body connections?  Or can we hook you up to a car battery?

David Sandler is who I know there.  Heart surgeon and a stickler on Challah pronunciation.

Not to be confused with:

(http://hollywoodjesus.com/movie/little_nicky/face.jpg)

He looked like he was fresh out of high school when he did the procedure on my daughter.  He's very well respected in the area.  Ironically, her boyfriend's father is a very good heart cath surgeon in the area as well.

Yes, he's a young guy.  He's engaged to one of my wife's best friends.

I recommend everyone that has the time to run down to OHI and get a pacemaker.

Same Dr. that put in my mom's pacemaker.  I finally remembered to ask her.
