I just got off the phone with Ron.
His procedure lasted about 6 hours. He spent yesterday in intensive care and was moved to
a patient care room today. They did a Roth procedure where they remove his aorta valve and
replace it with his own pulmonary valve, then implant a donor valve to replace that. They've
been doing this for about 10 years and the hospital where he's at does about 50 / year. So
he's in good hands. He's weak but sounds like the old Ron.

I've arranged for his flowers to be delivered tomorrow. Flowers were not allowed in the critical
care unit nor the intensive care unit. I had to sweet talk my way thru the labyrinth of rules just
to get the happy faced balloons with the EDIG closing prices past the nurses station. I split
the balance of the contributions in half with the intent of sending a second delivery of flowers
when he gets home. Thank you to all who contributed. The note accompanying the flowers
just has everyone's alais. I hope this meets with everyone's approval.

I kidded with Ron saying that the shareprice went up today because of all those happy faced
balloons. The candy strippers paraded them thru the hospital and every nurse and doctor
now knows about EDIG. I figured he had personally convinced the hospital staff that they
couldn't live without the Cequence mobil recorders by now. Here to for todays price spike will
be known as the Ron effect.

It was great hearing Ron and the relief in his wife's voice. Ron will probably be in the hospital
all next week in recovery. Beyond that looms a somewhat nebulous recovery process. He's
very fortunate, and thankful for all the kind prayers and appreciates everyones concerns.
