He has not had a heart attack in the traditional sense. As I said before, he was asymptomatic.
He's kinda wondering what all the hoopla is about.
He's doing well and in stable condition today.
It basically caused him to have a minor heart attack.
Some of the bird shot appears to have moved and lodged into part of his heart in what we would say is a minor heart attack.
The patient rested well last night and was joking with staff this morning.
The good news is Mr. Whittington has a very healthy heart, He's doing wonderful.
At this point in time, there's no plans to do surgery to remove that bird shot.
At this point in time there is no plan to do surgery to remove the birdshot. It is fixed in the heart at this point in time.
They might see this once or twice in their lifetime.
It's not moving and ... the cardiologists do not feel it's going to move. ... If it were in a position where it's going to move they would have gone in and done surgery immediately. It's not in a position where they think it's going to move any further to endanger his health.
The birdshot was not ever in the chamber of the heart.
It's not critical. It's not serious. It's just stable at this time.
I met with him earlier today he was in a great mood. He has gotten up in a chair today.
His condition continues to be stable ... it's not critical, its not serious. He's in stable condition, doing extremely well.
He's sitting up in a chair, he's eating regular food.
He's sitting up, eating regular food and is even doing some attorney work. He is doing extremely well. He's a true gentleman, and he wonders what all the hoopla is about.
He still kind of wonders what all the hoopla is about.
He's not there due to his medical condition. He is actually in our ICU strictly due to personal privacy reasons.
He's in stable condition ... He's sitting up in a chair, eating regular food, and he actually plans on doing some of his attorney work in his room today.
