My dad spent four days in the hospital. He was short of breath, getting dizzy standing up, and feeling anxious. They found he had fluid building up around his heart. After days of giving him something to get the fluid out of him, he’s back home. They’re also talking about giving him a third lead for his pacemaker since the double lead he has isn’t quite doing the trick.
He’s still golfing in his leagues, but he’s clearly not as strong as he was even just a year ago. At least he has his girlfriend, and they do shuttle back and forth between their two homes. She’s been struggling to deal with the death of her special needs son (at a remarkable age of 56), and not being able to get out to have a funeral for him hurts her.
Heading out now to fix some trim on our (soon to be former) house in Arkdale. Closing is at the end of this week. Need to get the trim done to meet all the requirements for sale. May try to find a lonely cache if I take the scenic way home.
