I met with him earlier today he was in a great mood. He has gotten up in a chair today.

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.

The patient rested well last night and was joking with staff this morning.

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.

He's doing well and in stable condition today.

They might see this once or twice in their lifetime.

His condition continues to be stable ... it's not critical, its not serious. He's in stable condition, doing extremely well.
