Great news Jim.

Please keep doing what your successful intelligent cardiologists is recommending.

They probably have their own Forums like we do, where they discuss their different medical opinions on whether to prescribe for example regular salt or organic sea salt ........... or something like that.

Well, isn't this a pleasant Saturday evening surprise...to hear from you on the Barn and doing well

!
Jim B,....if you need someone to 'exercise' your stable of Model As and , of course, do some preventative maintenance....give me a PM and I'd be glad to help

! Take it slow now and that will eventually allow you to go WOT !

Wagga A'er · 01-12-2014, 07:45 PM

Jim that is fantastic news. Keep up the good work and I hope to see you back online soon.

Was it God that helped you recover or was it the young nurse that "quickchange from New Zealand" brought you? Jan 1 2014.
