I don't know if any of the crocheting Peas follow the Crochet Crowd, but my DD sent me text about Daniel. He had a heart attack earlier today. He is going to have surgery in a little bit, if I read the post right. I was so heart broken when I read Mikey's post. I am praying for a good outcome and that Daniel will be okay.
DD and I had the privilege of meeting Mikey and Dan in person the first of this month in North Carolina. They were both so friendly and gracious to each and every person they spoke to. And never seem to mind to pose with their fans for endless photos. Truly wonderful guys. And they worked so hard at the tent sale that I wonder if that may not have played a role in his heart attack.
I am a beginning crocheter and just learning by following their tutorials.

I don't follow them, but I certainly hope that the surgery is successful and that he makes a quick recovery.

It really hits home for me. I am only 50 and my heart is very, very weak (my cardiologist's exact words) and at a high risk for heart attack. My ejection fraction is less than 30%. I value every day and treasure each moment with my family because I know I may not have tomorrow with them.
You just never know with life!! One minute you are seemingly in good health and then fighting for your life in the next moment. I never would have guessed this would happen to Dan when we met him a few weeks ago.

I saw this on FB earlier today. How sad! I have followed The Crochet Crowd for a long time and am so sad for them. Hopefully it turns out alright!

I've not heard of them, but checked their website. Wow! It's going to take some time to see all that they offer.
Best wishes to Daniel for a speedy recovery.

I saw Mikey's post on FB and it seems Daniel is doing much better now.

Daniel and Mikey just did a live video on FB about an hour ago. Daniel did most of the talking and he looks and sounds pretty good. He is home and taking meds and making some lifestyle changes but seem all is okay - he said it was a massive heart attack (and they run in his family) but luckily there wasn't a lot of damage.
