Dave aka Mudbug is on the heal, after heart attack! Thank you everyone!
Dave's Sister just called me, Dave suffered a heart attack today. He is in the Sturgeon, St Albert. He got in fast enough, that they were able to get the drugs in, hopefully damage is minimal.
Can we take up a collection and get some flowers over to our buddy?
Anyone?

There must be a story behind this?
My first thought when you said a huge bunny, was a playboy bunny, but I don't know him other than by some posts, so that may not necessarily be in good taste.

Many in here regarded 'Lola' as being the unofficial mascot for AO. I bet he would love a buddy while sequestered.

Sure, pm away, i'll warn you tho, my handwriting sucks.
Hoping someone else can pick out the flowers, i'm single, never married. Don't know what people like. Let me check to see what flower shops are around.
I'll throw my donation on the rabbit, see if I can find one.
i'll need Dave's last name and room number if possible.

No, if you can let us know which place tomorrow I will call with my donation, we can likely all do the same.
I am hoping we can do this early tomorrow morning, I am sure there is a store that will deliver.

Folks, while your sentiments are in the right place, if he is in ccu, you will NOT be able to take him flowers. They also restrict visitors to immediate family.
I know this because I went through it 4 years ago with my hubby.
Maybe take the flowers and bunny to him when he gets home.

good point, someone should find out where in the hospital he is, may have to wait for a couple of days.
