Best Wishes and Speedy Recovery for Rad

[Dragonslayer]

I'm not sure if this was posted here but was on another forum. I wasn't aware that Rad Davis had surgery last week but this is a quote from him. Wishing him a fast recovery, with the new plumbing he'll be back blasting the hell out of everything

To All Who Have Pipes on Order With me:

Some of you may already know that I had a heart attack and quadruple by-pass surgery last week and was in the hospital from Jan 17th thru Jan 24. I'm home now, and expect to make a full recovery. Luckily, there was very little damage done to the heart muscle.

At this point, I have no idea how long it will be before I'm back in the shop making pipes, but it won't be real soon, as I intend to take my time. )

If anyone needs to cancel their order, please let me know and I'll pull it from my queue. And please don't feel guilty if you need to cancel. I understand completely.

Thanks so much to all of you for your support, past and future. I'll let you know as soon as I'm back to work, and I look forward to seeing everyone in Chicago (Neil Flancbaum has told me I picked the perfect time of year to do this). )

Best,

Rad

Speedy recovery Rad. Having had an elephant on my chest the fact you had minimal damage is huge! Take it easy and best.

Must have been the cut of that morta block he used that set it off.

Seriously, glad your doing well and have a speedy recovery.

Heart attack, you are obviously working too hard at this pipemaking, you need power tools not a foot powered lathe!

Nice that we all love him so much to insult him when he is sick, that's a British style of love that is!

Get well soon Rad!
