Regis Philbin Goes In For Bypass Surgery This Week. Wish him well and luck.

[LeAnn Rimes My Angel 0]

I am sure everyone was surprised like I was when I heard the news yesterday that everyone's favourite. Daytime talk show host of "Live With Regis and Kelly" will be going for a bypass. Open heart surgery this week. I was really surprised when I heard the news. But knowing Regis they'll have to give him alot of stuff to put him to sleep for his operation. Or else I bet his operation will be a very loud experience for the Doctors that will have to work on him. lol Well let's all hope he pulls through his operation. And that he gets back to his show soon so that he can start bugging, PIPA again (Regis's nickname for Kelly Ripa his Co-Host).

 

For for those who wants to send him well wishes. You can just go to their Official website at "Live Regis and Kelly.com" And maybe Kelly will read your get well wishes to Regis on the Air. I know he'll pull through his show just won't be the same without him for a few weeks while he recovers from his Surgery.

 

Here's the official website for Live With Regis and Kelly Ripa:

I am sure he will love to hear from you. They'll probably read your messages on Air by either Gilman or Kelly Ripa herself. Let's all wish Regis a safe and happy recovery.

 

I'll be watching the show and hopefully they'll have updates on his progress.

I was particularly amused by the first broadcast of this news on Regis' show. Kelly was bemoaning having to care for him after his surgery with spongebaths and the like. Never one to miss a comedic opportunity, Regis shot right back "How about a quick dip before I go under the knife?" HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA...what a pill!I feel really bad for the guy. He so desperately wanted the angioplasty to be performed. He even went "doctor shopping" to see if he could find someone, ANYONE, to tell him that a full bypass wasn't necessary (which would have been a really dangerous thing to do btw)...but his search was for nought. He wound up in front of a team of specialists all telling him the same thing...balloons don't scrape out plaque...and he had gunk in vast abundance. Mind you...this shouldn't have been a surprise to him given his posh lifestyle over these many years.Anyone remember Regis filling in for David Letterman when HE had to have a bypass done???? I'm surprised he didn't take that event more to heart. AND, I'll be VERY curious to see if Letterman jumps at the chance to repay the favor and fill in for Regis for awhile! David Letterman...back on DAYTIME TV!!! WOO!! Who knows...maybe Kathy Lee might even come back for awhile. eee heee hee heeeAnyway...we're sending our love down a well...or wishing Regis get well....or something like that. Safe, speedy and happy returns, Regis!
