There “comes a time”, but not for you. At least this time.
Wow, that is so great that they caught it in time. Neil is one of my favorite artists of all time…
I’m not sure he is out of the woods yet. It has been a very bad year for classic rockers, just glance through the death pool thread.
The latest report I read made it sound like the prognosis was good. I hope so. He is one of my all-time favorites, giving the middle finger to the music industry time and time again!
Neil Young and Warren Zevon have been my favorite rockers for more than half my life.
It was awful for WZ to go out so early.
I am glad Neil made it this time and hope he has many more years.
Please tell me this is an error:
Into the brain, from the groin?!
IANADoctor, but that’s standard. There’s a large artery in the thigh. (It’s not like they go through your genitals.)
For males it’s the shortest path.
I knew better than that.
It just seems like a long way to go. Wouldn’t there be a better, shorter route from the neck or shoulders?
Here we are in 2013 and Neil is rockin’ on. Not without complications from that surgery. He nearly bled to death when his entrance site from that operation opened and bled out. But he’s doing ok. Even given up alcohol and weed.

Whoa, I had a flashback to last year:

They got his age wrong in that article. He was born in 1945, so unless the article is several years old, he’s no longer 59.
Well, the OP is from 2005. So the article in the OP actually is several years old. The dateline from CNN is Friday, April 1, 2005 Posted: 10:31 PM EST (0331 GMT).
The HuffPo link is newer, but doesn’t claim he is 59.
Prior to my heart surgery, they did a heart catheterization through my groin. And there are some actual procedures (e.g. angioplasty) that are performed through the groin.
Damn. That’s what my father died from, but he was 10 years older than Young.
Get well soon!
Check the date, Sam. This is a 9 year old thread.
Gave me a start, too, it did.
Didn’t notice the age of the thread either. Thought for a minute that Neil was younger than me and couldn’t believe it!
Phew! I thought he seemed a little young there (no pun intended).
damn you scared me, i love neil. i remember this happened in 2005, thought it happened again. then i saw the date.
i should sue you for negligent infliction of emotional distress.
