COPO Pete in hospital
 

From Terry Simpson [one of Pete's Canuck buddies] via the Pure Stock site:

<span style="font-weight: bold">&quot;Pete's boys wanted me to let everyone on here know that Pete went in for his new heart Saturday night @ 9pm. Surgery went well even though it lasted a little longer than expected. He is in recovery (critical care) and all indicators are favorable at this time. He is not alert yet and the 48 hours after the surgery is the critical window. I will try and update everyone but please be patient. Vicki is staying at the hospital and is coping well. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Sorry it is so short but I will add more later.&quot;</span>

Prayers for Peter.

Recovery can be fast or take quite a while. I was &quot;out&quot; for three days after my heart surgery and there was quite a bit of concern whether I would ever wake up. When I woke up I looked down in my hospital gown and saw I was all taped up. I knew they didn't waste tape on dead people. Since the surgery I am like a new man with much more stamina than I had for the previous twenty years.

I'm wishing the same for Peter too.

Great news! I know he's been anxious about this for quite a while. This might slow him down for a little while but he'll be back running hard VERY SOON.

Aren't most Copo's equipped with warranty replacement hearts?

Re: COPO Pete in hospital
 

Prays are being sent your way Pete.

We have met the last couple years at PSMCDR, and I am assuming this is the same Bruno from Ontario?

My Mom had open heart surgery two years ago and it has improved her life, they fixed two valves, maybe the three angle seats made all the difference?

Take care, let your family spoil you.

Wish I could send him a whiff of some 114 octane. That'd get him on the mend.
Tell him ALL his friends Down South send our Best Wishes.

Re: COPO Pete in hospital
 

Bless Pete and his new heart. And bless the person who was an organ donor that gave him that heart.

Get well soon. The chickens are calling.

I think all of us can live with a non born with component. At least he is not a rebody. That would be intolerable. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Re: COPO Pete in hospital
 

Wish you the best recovery.

Re: COPO Pete in hospital
 

Best wishes and hope you're up and around soon.

Re: COPO Pete in hospital
 

I hope you're running on all eight cylinders very soon Pete. Take care!

Re: COPO Pete in hospital
 

I met Pete at an SCR with his family a few years back. His new heart has an awfully big space to fill:) I wish him all the best and hope to see him in action soon.

Re: COPO Pete in hospital
 

Any updates on Peter? Maybe something directly from THE MAN HIMSELF?

Hoping for some &quot;Doing Great; Way Ahead of Schedule!!&quot; [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]
