Felix Hoff in the Hospital

Last evening (12/13/04) the Billings emergency room staff put Felix in the hospital and about 9 pm Larry called saying they were going to operate on him in a few minutes – he had his 90th birthday in October.

About 11:30 pm Melanie called to report all went well. They found an ‘obstruction’ in an intestine and that was what caused him to spit up the bile.

They operated in time to get the blood flowing through the intestine so no damage was done (they didn’t have to remove anything).

When Melanie called he still had a tube down his throat pumping out the bile, but all was going good.

I’ll pass along more information when I get it.
