In case you did not know, Duane Hubbard, a fellow long-term E&F Board member was rushed in to emergency 8 hour surgery as a result of a tear in his Aorta. The doctors say that on a normal person that tear could / should have caused death already, but they caught it and Duanne being healthy as an OX helped tremendously. The surgery last night was an 8 hour procedure, and today they are having a few complications that might result in additional surgery. I will post details as I get them, but PLEASE keep Duane in your thoughts and prayers guys.

I don't know Duane but this is terrible, and I certainly wish the best for him and will be pulling for him.  Yikes.

Duane had an internal hernia and part of his bowel was wrapped around the hernia. He is out of surgery and vitals are all stable! He is now on the mend and hopefully this takes care of the issues. Keep the good vibes flowing.
