Nothing specific on Arnie, except for the fact the operation is supposedly ?this week? in Surrey Memorial.
Comparing notes on others who?ve had multi-valve grinds ? there?s a good chance, if he has the plumbing done this week, he?ll be home by the end of next. It?s usually a week to ten days. They don?t keep ?em in long, nowadays. Another ?positive?: If he?s having it done at SMH ? not at RCH ? it?s not ranked as a ?serious job.? RCH is the cardiac referral centre for the complicated cases. Surrey does your routine jobs.
Bottom line - If the timetable I have is correct, there?s every chance we could see him on Barker?s back deck ? if he feels up to it ? come late August.
