It means a lot to me and helps with the healing process more than you know. I can't thank you enough for all the kind thoughts and wishes.
Wiggy To cut down on rumor control, I'll try to give you the short story about what took place. I went in to MUSC for a heart cath and possibly another stent. What they found was not good so the docs scheduled me for open heart surgery the next week.]]> fred@infotechdesign.net (Fred) frontpage Thu, 11 Feb 2010 04:24:48 +0000 Beast of the East registration - Attn.

    It is good to have people like Laurie (Carol) and Bill (William) O’Day who step up when their rights are being violated and are willing to take on the government. It is good to have 47 others who are willing to join them in protesting government actions that affect their rights. It is great when you can start early in the process and get things on the record.

  The state supreme court heard the helmet law case today, but is not expected to make a decision for up to 6 weeks. The judge did make a statement saying that she felt the reason for myrtle beaches helmet law was to get rid of bikers and she did not like that fact. When I receive more info, I will pass it on to you.

WiggyJust wanted to let you know that I talked to Donna today. Wiggy has 80% to 90% blockage in 3 of the main valves to his heart. He is scheduled for quadruple by-pass surgery on Monday morning at 6am. Donna said it will take 8 to 12 hours. He will be in Intensive Care for 2 days and in a room for 2 days, that is if all goes well, as the Doctor doesn't expect any problems. Then she will bring him home over the weekend. He will be out of work at least 6 to 8 weeks.
If ABATE is going to do anything to help them out, please let me know. I know they can use the help but would never ask.
Will let you know how things are going with Wiggy as soon as I talk to Donna after surgery.
Mary & Chuck
