Captain Bill Burt Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Fast Eddie called me yesterday and asked me to come take him to the hospital and of course I did. Initially we thought it was pneumonia, turns out the doctors think it was an Nstemi heart attack (Google is your friend here). I visited him about 30 minutes ago and he's resting comfortably. Heart enzymes are up and they're going to do a stress test this morning. A heart attack is obviously a bad thing, but the good news is he's in very capable hands and feeling upbeat. He's tired and he runs out of breath pretty quickly so if you are going to call him keep that in mind. I checked with him before posting this and he's OK with it. Thoughts, prayers, whatever works for you will be appreciated. As I get news I will share it here. 12 13 1 Quote

T Bone Johnson Posted January 24 Posted January 24 SO sorry to hear, but glad he recognized he needed help and had a good friend in CBB that was ready, willing and able to help. So many times an early phone call makes all the difference. Fast Eddie and Capt. Bill Burt are two peas in a pod, both go out of their way to help anyone, anytime. T Bone Johnson 1 1 Quote

Captain Bill Burt Posted January 25 Author Posted January 25 I just got through talking to Eddie and he gave me an update. They now think he may not have had a heart attack, he may have either had a blockage in his stent or he has type A flu and the virus may have gone to his heart. Evidently either of them is still better than having a heart attack. He’s getting an echo cardiogram tomorrow. I’ll visit him after the match tomorrow and report back! 7 6 Quote
