Good times keep on happening, NOT!

[RSHERMVIKES]

Hey BYers, On Saturday, 4am had a bug, and with my heart problems, I drove myself to L&M hospital, 5 blocks away, 1 hour later was in an ambulance to Yale-NH Hospital for a heart operation on my pacemaker. At YNH they changed their minds, no heart operation, cure the bug! Possible h o in a day or 2 to shrink a heart chamber! I couldn't get the UCONN VS CFU game on TV or my iphone, I WAS REALLY BUMMED OUT! Finally got game on 1080 on iphone for 2nd half! Not the same as watching my Huskies!

The game will be around on replay. Please make sure YOU will be around too! Listen to your doctors and get well soon!

 

[j66kicker]

Glad your health was good for the Maryland game anyway (I had to miss it - out of the country, not on their TV, couldn't stream). Hope all is well now...

Sorry you're not well, get better
Up in the NE Kingdom, we're blacked out by ESPN
God knows why
So, It's the same WTIC you got

For what they charge in the medical system they should have had virtual reality headset for your viewing of the game. Come back frosty RSHERMVIKES.

RShermVikes----As huge as the UC women's games may be---your well being is more important. As one of the Good Guys
you are needed here!!! Super happy you didn't need an operation---unhappy you picked up the damn bug. In Yale NH you are in good hands.
I was going to chew you out for driving yourself to the hospital--then i remember --i had chest pains and almost passing out and drove my self to the ER---it was NOTHING--not even a bug. \
Again --be good to yourself--we need you!!

 

[Gus Mahler]

Dang, you've been through a lot. Best wishes.

 

[Kaizen]

Wish you have a healthy new year .....starting from today.

 

[hoophuskee]

Get well! Wish you the best. Take care of yourself!

 

[BigBird]

Get well soon, from here in balmy Central Illinois.

God Bless and I will keep you in my prayers

Allow me to chime in regarding the incident. I had a major heart attack 8 years ago. After the initial massive pain, I felt all right, but called 911 as well as taking some aspirin. When they arrived, I had packed a bag because I expected to go to the hospital. To shorten the very long story a bit, they validated that I had indeed had a heart attack and that they were going to transport me to Hartford Hospital. Because of current technology, they were able to hook up all the electronic devices while we were in the ambulance and the hospital was able to determine where the blockage in my main artery was located. When I arrived, I was taken immediately into the cath lab and got a couple of stents within minutes. The point of the story is that my cardiologist told me that if I had not had that "fast path" treatment, I would have died. The ER will take in a patient immediately under these circumtances, but if you drive yourself, you will not get such immediate attention.

The point is - if you think that you are having a heart attack, call 911 and use an ambulace to get hospital!

@RSHERMVIKES glad to hear you are avoiding the operation. Feel better!

 

[bags27]

RSHERMVIKES--You are strong! You'll fight off this bug and be back for the East Texas Game! Get better real soon.

 

[tomcat]

Keep fighting. Let's see you back in action for the next game.

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

Hey thanks for all the good wishes & positive thoughts! I'm supposed to have heart surgery eventually so I'm thinking I'll have the heart surgery while I'm at Yale New Haven Hospital! Go Huskies!
I can't get SNY on YNH TV or on my phone so seeing next game is in danger!

 

[Husky pride]

Get better real fast! You're in our prayers!!

 

[jimazee]

The ability to diagnose and treat heart related problems is amazing when compared to a "few" years ago...stents, pacemakers, and such are becoming as common (well almost...) as band-aids. We are fortunate despite the criticism of USA health care.

Get better all...and have a good 2017 and more.

Coach Sherman, from one ELHS Viking (class '82) to another-good luck and get well soon!!!!

 

[OldAlum]

Well, the last game is on ESPN3 so you can watch that on tablet, laptop or phone. Wednesday's game will be on there right after it is done too. So you are just in a different time zone!

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

I just watched the UCF replay on ESPN3 and that made me feel better. They were sloppier than they've been but I expected that, with lesser opponent and days off, but they still had a lot of really good play!

 

[EricLA]

Wishing you a speedy recovery, and my thoughts and prayers are with you. Your health is far more important than anything UCONN related, no matter how much we love our team! Looking forward to seeing you back at 100% soon!!

HuskyPhan- - - Thanks HP! WOW! A Viking alumni!
'82, you were in with Mike Binaco, Bobby San Juan, Dan Towpasz, Nate Hanson, were wrestling for me! Those were really great times at ELHS!
