• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

For Rami

Best of luck, Andrew.

Here's hoping the tests turn out as you hope and everything goes smooth and easy!

Nothing like a little time spent among loved ones and family at the Holidays to put one on the mend- just don't be wearing your MAGA hat at the dinner table!

Cheers,

Chris

MaskRider,

Thanks for the well-wishes, and I have no hat of that sort. By the way, I don't ever discuss politics over food. Booze, yes, but never food. :biggrin-new:

Actually, I'm a little concerned about the weather here in MA tomorrow morning, snow changing to sleet, heaviest around 9am. It looks like we're getting out before the worst of it, but still, timing is a bit dodgy. :wiggle:

UncleTgt,

The latter is something I am definitely guilty of.

Good morning,

Onboard JetBlue Flight 835. The snow makes me a little nervous...

UPDATE: We are having to be de-iced. Now I’m regretting watching all those Air Disasters episodes...

Good morning,

Finally cleared turbulence and clouds around 30k. Cruising at 38,000ft, but have a 195mph headwind, so ground speed is only about 335-340mph.

If we were in a Swordfish, we’d literally be flying backwards at least at highway speeds.

Good afternoon,

Made it in about 10:30am or so CST. And we are now in Rochester, MN, checked into the hotel. Testing is tomorrow morning and afternoon, and I will be in touch tomorrow evening to let you know what they have decided to do.
 
Good luck and best wishes to you Drew, remember you are in an excellent place, one of the best, to have any medical procedures conducted. Cutting edge rings a bell.

Rami, you're in great hands there at the Mayo. Although the timing may not be ideal, they work wonders.. About Smithsonian's Air Disasters.. I've recorded most all of them and I can categorically say, not sure it's good to know WHAT could happen. Sometimes, Ignorance is Bliss....Get well, may God bless you and yours.. Merry Christmas.....

Good evening,

The fourth time has appeared to be the charm; I am having the stent insertions done tomorrow. I report to the hospital about 11:00 am CST, The surgery is expected to take approximately 3-4 hours, and I will be in some discomfort for a couple of days afterward. But then, unless something goes badly wrong, I'll only need to fly out at 3 months hence, 6 months, and one year from now for checkups.

I or another SOH member whom I contact will post an update tomorrow evening. Thanks for all of the well-wishes and positive thoughts!
 
Update from Rami

Rami called me this evening to say they successfully put in the stents and all is well. He does say that he has a stiff back (he probably accidentally laid down on a Viagra pill :biggrin-new:) and that he was physically and emotionally drained. He was headed back to the hotel to rest... He also said he would probably not be on SOH tonight but wanted you all to know he is okay. :applause:
