For my husband.
For the past 2 days he was complaining of indigestion, something he has often. Shortly after I posted over in mindless chatter he woke up sweating, with pain in both his chest and arm. I made him put on his slippers and took him to the emergency room. He had all the classic signs of a heart attack. And that is exactly what it was
I took him to the emergency room just down the street, they saw him ASAP and within 30 min had him stabilized. They called and had an ambulance come and get him for emergency transport to the local heart hospital for cath surgery.
On the other hand it took me over an hour to get there, and it is a 15 min drive from the house. There was both an Iron man triathlon and a Taylor Swift concert at the fair this afternoon and evening.
I was not a happy camper. I was scared to death something would happen and I would not be there. Every road I tried was blocked or diverted.
By the time I got there they were DONE. He had 90% blockage in one area and 100% in another. He now has 2 stints and doing fine, was in fact begging for food by the time I left. The Dr. was very gracious, this is a complete on call team that came in for this. His prognosis is good but we have some lifestyle changes, he should, hopefully, come home on Wednesday.
The next few weeks are going to be hard. I am going to have to change the dogs routine as well. Thankfully I have bosses that are understanding and my hours can be flexible.
If you all could say a little something for him to get through the next few days I would appreciate it.
