There is a God after all!
Almost two years ago I had to have an angioplasty procedure and a stent placement. I lost my FAA medical and never got it back. Six months ago, after my six month stress test, my cardiologists told me there were problems. We agreed to wait another six months and see what the next stress test would show.
I have always been someone who likes to exercise. I have always, run, jogged, bicycled, walked, lifted weights or swam for exercise. So I was really dismayed when I found out I had coronary blockage. These last few months, I have really been hitting the pool. My wife and I meet every afternoon to swim. She noticed my extra effort and guessed my motive.
She told me, “You aren’t trying to fix your blockage with all this swimming?”
I did what every man would have done. I lied.
“Of course not honey.”
Well, I had my test. I passed. He said that the abnormalities were no worse than before. In fact, they were better! Ha ha! It worked! :ban:
Maybe now the FAA will believe that I am safe to fly?
