| New Lease on Life - Literally |

I'm sorry to have gone a week without blogging, but Dad has been in the hospital since Sunday. He had a small heart attack (he's fine) and they changed out his implanted pacemaker/defibrillator today. The one he had inserted today is a newer, sleeker and longer lasting version. It should last at least another five years. Dad was confused and a bit nervous moments before the procedure, so I tried to keep things up-beat. "Your lease is running out. If you want to stay around five more years, we have to do this short procedure." "I think I will re-new." He said. "If the next 5 years are as good as the last five, I may get another one put in when I am 87." Let's hope so! Stay tuned for hospital stories. We'll be home tomorrow, and I have LOTS! |
