wheelhorseman 3,211 #1 Posted March 14, 2019 Today I (Joette) was fortunate to talk to Howard and found out that he has some news to share with everyone. It seems that Howard found out that his kidneys are not working so well for him. He just found out about his kidneys one week before he had his first heart attack. The medical team that assisted with Howard's first surgery, did not complete the entire surgery that Howard required. The reason was that his kidney's shut down due to the contrast dye that the medical team use. So they closed him up and sent him home to recover and to allow his kidneys to mend, before they decided to schedule his next surgery. He received a phone call from the kidney doctor and he received the all clear to have the second surgery. He will be having that surgery on Monday, March 18, 2019. He told me that he will be at the big show in June. The reason why Howard has not been on Red Square is because he forgot his password and has to relocate the paper he wrote it on. Then he will be back on Red Square. Please keep Howard in your thoughts and prayers 2 2 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
