Get well soon.
We mailed in our mooring deposit to Hawthorne Cove Marina today. I'll keep a sharp eye out for you this spring.

Don, Best wishes for a speedy recovery, but THIS THREAD IS USELESS WITHOUT PICTURES (of the nurses of course!)
And drink more RED wine!
My blood pressure (at 67) is less than when I was 21.
Back then it was 120 over 70, and recently at a vision check (wtf?) it was 120 over 60.

She's one of the Thai nurses at the Bangkok-Phuket Hospital. I saw her yesterday when I had my colonoscopy.

Re: Don Lucas in Hospital - a little Get Well
Keerist almighty! Some guys will do anything to get out of fixing a busted head. I'll stop by your boat while your still in the hospital and relieve you of all the beer to help out n your recovery.
Really, get well dude and watch out for the sexy nurse with the mustache.

Re: Don Lucas in Hospital - a little Get Well
Hey Don...We all got together and pitched in and ordered a Mayo enema for you. I have 5 stints currently.

Don,
A doctors prescription for sailing? That would mean you boat and related expenses just became a tax deductible medical expense.
So when are you buying a new 301 foot custom Hunter (with a HUGE anchor)
  
Get well soon, hands off the nurses, don't eat the hospital food, get the hell out of there and back on your boat

The best advice I have seen on CF yet. Did you ask the cardiologist if he was an expert
All the best for speedy recovery.
