he turned 70 in feb and is still going strong
only complication from the surgery was that his legs got infected where they took the veins

Just went into surgery, 6 hour surgery, 6 bypasses.
When they remove the vein from the leg they do othroscopically (sp)
Its amazing how the human body has these extra veins floating around for future maintenance.
