Concerned when I heard the news; however glad to hear you're on the mend. As one member of "Old Guy Racing" to another, hope to see you and Pam in the pits as soon as possible.
Dave,
We're thinking of you.........I went through a similar repair operation about 13 years ago. Blew out the Mitral Valve yankin' and bankin' in the F-16. You'll be good as new in about 6 weeks. In the meantime you'll feel like you are 100 years old. I remember all 13 sneezes that I had in those 6 weeks of recovery. Keep a pillow close at all times.
Anyway, with better compression and higher pressure you'll be ready to race by June.......but don't tell your doctor. Get off meds as soon as the doctor allows. Mike, Raceboat 61-S
Dave,
Just a single by-pass and a valve job? Piece of cake! You'll be back in time for Millville. Six weeks and you'll feel like a million bucks, more energy than you've had in years. Who knows, maybe your brain will get more blood and you won't be so stupid anymore( it didn't work for me but I've heard rumors). Wish you well, buddy.
John... John..... something is clearly amiss here\\\\\\ I was just down in Key West sitting over in a dimly lit corner of the Scrub Club on Truman Avenue, when I distinctly heard them announce this: Dave Young... Dave Young.... your Maserati Quattrosporte GTS "32 Valve" sports mosheen is about to be towed unless you remove it from the entry Fire Lane. As you know, Truman Avenue is a fine place to take a date. The seating is always dimly lit. We (my trusting date and I) were seated within five feet of "the Golfer TW" so the last thing we expected was to hear the name of a freaking boat racer with their car illegally parked. But, it happened. Then.... before I could wipe the sweatt off my glasses... a good looking "blond" clearly bearing the distinct resemblance of "Pam" got up... yanked the keys out of (it must have been Dave's hand) and proceeded to head out to the entry alcove.
From this I can only assume that the reports of a "valve" replacement are entirely screwed up. What obviously took place involved the 32 Valve Maserati "Quattroporte" and nothing at all to do with Dave's ticker....which was obviously performing as advertised at the Scrup Club where 'Adult entertainment' is the name of the tune.
All I can say is: Ya gotta watch those guyz in Longgggisland. Next thing you know, Pete Givenski and Lauren are gonna be advertising ANOTHER race n-treeeee.
Has anyone heard any recent news lately? Do they have him up and walking so he can atleast chase nurses?
Spoke with Dave, he is doing OK, very sore and hates the hospital food. He is really looking to get home real soon. He laughed a little but it hurt. Needs to put a pillow on his chest when he caughs. ......Bob N-96
