9 December 2010: Quadruple

To those who've been asking after Gloria's dad's health, thanks! He's doing well after sudden (surprising!) heart bypass surgery that was originally thought to be a triple but ended up being a quadruple once they got in there. He was home within four days and recovering well. Kudos to the staff at the St Francis Medical Center down in Monroe, especially the excellent Dr White who actually did the surgery and was rightly rewarded with a box of Cocoa Puffs.

'Rewarded with a box of cocoa puffs' - ha ha ha! That's really funny, well done Duncan!

And more importantly, hurrah for the successful surgery. Great news.

Actually it's true: Dr White commented at one point that his wife is a nutritionist and so he never gets anything tasty - he said that just occasionally he'd like a fun cereal such as Cocoa Puffs (Cocoa Pops in the UK, in case you hadn't guessed). So Gloria's family got a big box of said cereal, wrapped it up and gave it to him as a Christmas present...
