I just heard that Uncle Jean had to be coded. He has been in Brookwood for the past week after having chest pains that resulted in quadruple bypass surgery. He hasn't been doing so well. He has had a lot of pain and recently had to have a temporary pacemaker installed. I first heard the news that he had coded and we don't know if they can get him back. Then about 20 minutes later, word came that they had a successful code and he was stable.
