Thanks you to all for your support, cards and email during this shocker over the last few days....I'm still processing eveything that just happened, parts of which are very blurry......One minute your think your a healthy guy, ...early fifties, thin, non smoker and feeling fine...then the next minute being rushed to the hospital in the back of the Rescue Squad, severe chest pains ...can't breath...sweating profusly and thinking this could be the end...and will we make it in time....
Thanksfully they did make it just as my heart was giving out....the Doc told me later that another minute or 2 delay and it would have been a different outcome....it took several attempts with the Paddles to jolt me back once in the OR...that has been a tough thing to process and has hit me to the core.....I am so gratefull to the fast actions of everyone involed, the 911 operator...the local EMT's and the Hospital staff....true hero's of our Society..
Because of eveyones fast actions permanant damage was kept to a minimum and the Doc has assured me a full recovery in a few weeks....along with a slight change in diet and some meds..
Thanks again, I know it was comforting for Janice to read the outpouring of support when she returned home alone each night from the hospital....its been tough for her as well...so Thanks!
