As I am sure you have noticed, this blog has not been updated regularly the past couple of weeks. I am going through some health problems right now, the most urgent of which is a possible artery blockage. Tomorrow I will undergo a procedure where the doctor will confirm if there is a blockage, and if so, how bad the blockage is. If practical, the doctor will place a stent into the artery to clear the blockage and I’ll come home on Saturday. If the blockage is worse than they suspect it is, I’ll be scheduled for heart bypass surgery as soon as possible.
In light of all this, I’m going to be taking some time off from blogging until I feel better. I don’t know how long it will be, but if all goes well I’m thinking about 2 weeks. Obviously if I need the bypass, it will be substantially longer. It just depends on what happens.
I appreciate the thoughts and prayers offered by all, and rest assured that I know that I need every one of them, I am grateful for your kindness and blessed to have family and friends who care this much.

I appreciate that, Ann. Hopefully, this will all turn out to be just a bump in the road.

You know the people who developed stent technology are right here in San Antonio. Don’t know if that makes you feel better or not, but hopefully it means you will be in good hands.
We will be praying for you to have a quick recovery. Take care of yourself, Nick.
