NEW YORK — Mike Wallace was recovering from triple heart bypass surgery that was performed last week, CBS News said Tuesday.

Wallace, who turns 90 this spring, is already walking following the surgery Friday to bypass blockages near his heart. Doctors are calling the operation "a great success," the network said.

Recovery from heart bypass surgery generally runs about six weeks.

The veteran "60 Minutes" correspondent, who is essentially retired, recently interviewed Roger Clemens about allegations of steroid abuse.

You Go, Mike!
Here's to a speedy recovery.

And when you get better, now that you've seen how short your time here on earth might be, please take 60 Minutes to the next major frontier: Bring up and discuss, in detail, the charges and arguments FOR impeachment of both Cheney and Bush. Make it a series, as necessary, just as you have covered other lengthy topics in the past.

Thanks Mike - godspeed!

Best wishes Mike. Do some Qi Gong and you can cut your recovery time in half.

I'm gonna quess that Mike is a big Democrat supporter and therfore likes their plans for changing health care. Does he know that almost certainly HE would not qualify for a CABG (open heart surgery) due to his age.Does the american public know this. I think not or they think its an exageration.Check out the age restrictions in England.Now if your rich(like Mike) you can pay yourself but most people the Clinton health rationing plan will affect cant afford to pay and like sheep they are being led to support this plan they dont understand.

Best wishes to Mike, an ageless, objective, no-nonsense journalist. Even Mike must wonder how his son Chris turned out to be such a partisan schmuck tool of Fox noise.
