Daddy Dee Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Got word this evening, from Tony's wife, that Tony has had a heart attack and is in Baptist Hospital in LR. He wasn't feeling well and went to the doctor, who sent him right over to the hospital. He's had a heart cath and angioplasty today to open up a 100% blocked artery. Don't have any word about possible heart damage. If you are available to lift him up in your prayers, I know he and his family would appreciate that. If you don't know Tony, he's a ten year + forum member. He's a super dad and a great friend, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMcD Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Consider the prayers done. For Tony, his family, and the medical crew. It is good that he has a condition that is treatable. I met Tony at the First Pilgrimage. He had a big hand in setting it up. Somewhere on the forum there is a picture of him awarding PWK a bottle of Irish Whisky. Best of luck Tony. Relax and let the docs and God heal you. Wm McD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Name doesn't ring a bell, does he go by a different name on the forum? Either way, hoping for a fast recovery! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Prayers for sure! Wishing him all the best, and as Gil says, at least this is treatable. He is certainly a part of the foundation of this forum, even if he doesn't have a high post count. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEC Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I talked to Tony last week. Was hoping to have him up here for one of our semi-regular listening sessions soon. Hope he makes a speedy recovery. He is at a very good hospital with an excellent cardiac care unit. They have brought me back from the brink several times. They should get him fixed up. Tony, you are in our prayers. Bob Crites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddy Dee Posted November 18, 2009 Author Share Posted November 18, 2009 update on Tony. Talked with Dena this morning. The doc is keeping him in CCU at least one more day to monitor him. The expectation is that Tony may be able to go home after three or four days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
