Unfortunately Will is not young but believe it or not this is in his favor due to the developement of collateral blood circulation that developes as we age in the heart as vessel occlusion happens to everyone. That said IF he ends up with quadruple bypass that is serious surgery with no complications regardless of his pre surgical condition. With pnuemonia complicating things prior to the procedure pending the type of bacteria it is or whether or not it is even viral the water becomes as muddy as a New Orleans swamp.... We can only pray and wait and hope it all works out... C

My grandfather was in his early 80s when he had a quadruple bypass as well and he came through it very well. He was also very active like Will (still blew out his own driveway that was a good 1/4 mile long, sidewalks, etc.). They can do amazing things now for the heart...and amazing things with prayers as well. My prayers are still with you Will. Paula

  Thanks, everyone for your prayers and thoughts for my Father. I apologize for not responding back sooner but have had very little time for internet. He had his By pass surgery moved to this past Tuesday. He did not have Pnemonia but congestion around his heart and in his lungs.  My Father  had 4 Bypasses, plus a 80% blockage in a neck artery. He is doing great and is recovering real good. He is now in a regular room and no longer in intensive care. If he keeps improving we hope he can come home this Monday. Maybe by this time next week he can be back on the forum.     Thank you so much for your prayers and thoughts. Â
