This coming April will be two years since David had a quadruple arterial
bypass. If he hadn't had it, he would probably not be living now. Prior
to that he had several stents implanted. However, from a health standpoint
he is actually doing much better now and his test results for cholesterol,
BG, etc., are all completely in the normal range now. He continues to eat
better, but still will only eat a fairly narrow range of foods.
