Hello to all of you.

[RED Matthews]

Thanks for the letters and thoughts from the few that knew about it - but I have been away for over a month.

The news is that I am home again. I just got home from the Hospital today. I am glad to be here, I can assure all of you that. My experience from this problem went beyond all of my World of Life's experiences. I had a major heart attach that was a really bad one. I now have three by-passes or what ever they call them. A new valve on the out going side of my heart, a pace maker and in the process of the expeiences; they had to use the paddles on me four times to get it working again. Obviously it wasn't my time to go.
I missed the contacts with all of you, because I have been out of it for a full month. RED Matthews
