| Thanks for all the calls and notes regarding my minor heart surgery tomorrow. I am not one for medical events and your concerns eased my nerves. Hope to be happily resting amongst my (hope they will open) blooms next week. I can't think of a better way to repair than in the scent of tropical blossoms. And Laura- you are a gem. Bill |

| Bill, I haven't been monitoring the Plumeria Forum for a while. This is news. Please have a speedy recovery. Thanks again for all your generosity to so many fellow plumeria growers. |
|
| I'm so glad all went well! Take it easy, Bill! Laura, thanks for giving us an update. |
|
| Good for Bill! Get better quickly! |
|
| Wow Bill, I just heard. Glad things are getting better. My Dad just went through some heart issues, but is doing much better now too. Plumerias will get you through anything. Big Wave Dave |
|
| I am back. Modern medicine is something else. One day they are inside your heart burning spots that are acting up and the next day you are home walking in your garden. I can't work or lift heavy things for a week but I can be fully active in the surf in two weeks. Of course, last night was no sleep at all but today I feel really good. Thanks to all my fellow addicts- may we all have grand inflos in life. Bill |
|
| It's truly awesome to see you back here Bill. I agree. Modern medicine is awesome! Had that first back surgery..had 2o+ staples in my abdomen and they released me the very next day to go home. I was up and moving that same day. Thanks for letting us know your feeling ok....and thanks to you Laura for passing the message along! Andrew |
|
| Bill- great news. Glad to hear everything worked out OK. You're a great help to all of us on the forum. |

| Bill congrats on a successful procedure! Is your email still the same? I just sent you mail and got an immediate response that I know is not from you. ellen24961@yahoo.com |
|
| Ellen- some vitamin company hijacked my account and is sending out ads. I sent you a reply to your e-mail. James- you are too funny. A vegan healthy meal coming from a guy who brought me 8 of the most high calorie, decadent cup cakes from King's bakery. You are prohibited from any further gestures of friendship over 1000 calories. LOL. Thanks- I greatly value your friendship ans so enjoy yakking plumie stories with you. |

| Bill, Did you run an update and antivirus before you changed your password? Or are you using your Mac, if so do you have your firewall "ON"? James :) |
|
