Well, tomkorrow is the day when the doctor (a different one than the one that pierced my heart) pulls the lead and repositions it. Hopefully, the hole will clot quickly and they won't have to split me open like gutting a fish. LOL.The doctor is fairly confident that will be the case.
So here comes another month or two convalescent leave. That's REALLY BORING, but you don't hear me complain .... much. Oh well, it'll give me a chance to figure out my new stupid smart phone. It takes three days to figure out what to do with your phone anymore. I don't know if that says something about me or the phone........
I'm gonna quit talking about what happened out there in the real world. every time I do somebody gives the the name of their lawyer. I'm not sueing. The doctor did nothing but try to keep me alive. I mean, sure, if somebody cuts off the wrong leg, sue! But damn! He was doing this blind for all intents and purposes, and my heart did not cooperate. That's why they call it a practice.
Anyway, say a prayer for me. If you don't hear from me on the 31st, that means either I died (not likely) or have a large incision on my chest. I'll update as soon as I can.

Yesterday I moved to a new place in my mind and realized how bad I felt 'before' and the difference my pacemaker has made.
