pacemaker procedure

After checking in and spending 2 1/2 hours in the hospital, my procedure was canceled and rescheduled for tomorrow at 8:00 am. The technician had to "go home".
So, I'll update everyone tomorrow.

Did you explain to them that your sister has a heart condition and she can't take the stress of waiting another day? Sheesh!

Okay, another day to pray. We said prayers for you with Aaron and Kyle and Aaron interrupted to add his own words, apparently I didn't pray enough - so I have another day to get it straight!!

Hey guys, Just to add insult to injury, let me tell you how stupid I can be. I also got a lecture from my son via Pam about this. So enjoy!
Saturday I was working in the shop and I was gluing and stretching some felt on the bottom of a toy box I am making. I could not quite reach all areas since the project was on the work bench; so I grabbed a nearby chair and stood on it. Well you know what is coming the chair tipped and when it did it struck my left leg near the shin bone on the inside. Within minutes I had a hematoma the size of a softball. Pam said in all the years in the ER she never saw one so big and come up so fast. So I went to the walk in clinic and since I waited 3 1/2 hours they could not drain it. So an Ace Bandage and Ice for 24 hours then heat.
Now I will say it hurt real bad, but not as bad as the lecture from Jamie. He said "Mom I can't believe with all the ladders dad has he stood on a chair". Never to old to be put in your place, especially from your child who happens to be right. ;-(
