Well, Eagle is still at the Hospital. They have decided to go a head and do a triple bypass on his heart. He will be having the surgery tomorrow morning around 8am.

I will be sure to update everyone tomorrow as soon as I can. I told him everything you guys are saying on here and he wants you all to know that he appreciates everyone's good wishes.

Like I said, Eagle is strong and is in good spirits...and after the surgery he'll be back better than ever!

Thanks for the updates MGB. Please extend my best wishes. A new home, a new year and a refurbished ticker. When the sun finally rises he's pretty much assured a stellar year. All the best. C-dad

Eagle will be in my prayers, for a speedy and complete recovery, and the luck of the Irish on his first prospecting trip...

OK.. Eagle made it out of surgery and everything seems to be going just fine!

If you want to send Eagle a post card, PM me and I'll give you an address.

I'll let everyone know when I hear more.

I had an event last summer so I know what you are going through. It's amazing what the body shop can do these days to fix a problem. Six weeks after surgery my doc told me to go climb El Cap if I wanted (Yeah right, Maybe 20 years ago).
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Went and seen Eagle today and he's is doing great. Hopefully they'll release him from the Hospital by the 27th which is his Birthday.

Well, this should be the last update you get from me, next time it will be from Eagle himself! :icon_thumleft:

Eagle my friend.

I've tried to call you, but I imagine they're not letting you use the cell in the hospital. I'll try again to get in touch with you. My prayers are with you.

Mariposagoldbag, if you see him--please say hello and let him know I'll keep trying to contact him. Or, he can leave me a message about when it's a good time to contact him.

All the best,

Lanny

Happy birthday Eagle, and a speedy recovery too !
A pal of mine had a similar operation a few years back, and that along with some physical therapy has made him now stronger and fitter than for many years before.
Wishing you all the best - Nuggy

Happy Birthday Eagle.

Think of this hospital stay as your 100,000 mile tune up, now you're good for another 100k. :icon_thumright:

Rest up, and take care. Maven.
