Spent the afternoon with RedDog at the VA Hospital in Augusta, GA and he is in very good spirits.....:) Thought I should make a post here so everyone would know what's going on. Kirk West drove him in this morning from Macon. Took a long time for him to get a room. The VA Hospital in Augusta, GA is a great place having other hospitals nearby to share knowledge. the Medical College of GA is next door and is a great research facility. The doctors go from one hospital to the other. If you need medical treatment, the Augusta, GA area is one of the best places to be in this country. Shared a nice lunch with BDOB and Kirk and then we went back to the hospital. By that time RedDog was in a room. They took some blood from him and some X-Rays. The anesthesiologist and doctor's came in and in detail told him what they were going to do tommorrow. RedDog will be in surgery starting at 8AM. He is the first person in surgery in the morning and I'm sure the 8AM time frame is real close. He will be in surgery for at least 5 hours. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers in the AM. He will be in the hospital for at least 5 days. Again he is in good spirits. there is a young nurse there that is cute as a button and he was being RedDog and I of course chimed in. She is a very sweet person and can take and give a lot of ribbing!! She will be looking after him...... Thanks to BDOB and Wayne for the visit. We will be checking in on him tomorrow afternoon if just to touch him. He will likely be in intensive care, but we will go anyway. In lieu of flowers please donate to the the RedDog fund. See ya'll tommorrow evening.....
