Every so often a life-changing event happens. I had one of those recently.
Eight weeks ago, I had open heart surgery to bypass a blockage, well more than one blockage, to be honest.
I am doing fine now, and all indications are that once my recovery is complete I will be better than I was before.
My friends and family have been very supportive of me during my recovery, and I am back working full time and leading a normal life, with certain physical restrictions in place until my bones heal from the procedure.
I am told I can begin training in a month from now, and can resume fighting in armor come mid-December.
Everybody wish me luck.

Good luck, man. Hope things improve
Re: Personal News
It's all good news, actually, at this point.
The blockage in my heart was in the LAD artery, and a blockage there leads to a heart attack they call "the widowmaker." Mine was quite severe. If the blockage hadn't been detected I probably would have died on the fighting field at Pennsic.
So even though major surgery is an unpleasant thing to go through, I am definitely ahead of the game because I am on the right side of the ground.
Thank you for the well wishes.
