Nashville, TN (April 7, 2010) -- NSAI Hall of Famer Hank Cochran has often said that "God smiles" upon him, and it was obviously true last Wednesday, March 31, when Cochran's doctors discovered an aortic aneurysm the size of a grapefruit. Thanks to the quick intervention of Doctors Karl Vandevender, Johanna Bendell and Chad Swan (Surgeon), Hank was rushed into surgery and the aneurysm was repaired before it burst - an outcome that would have proved fatal for the 74-year old legend of song.

 


Cochran is in good spirits, although a bit "tired," according to his wife Suzi. She asks friends to understand that Hank is only able to see very limited visitors at this time, however emails are welcome. They may be sent to: susienashville@aol.com.
