Hello Monday
For as chilly as 42 felt this morning, the sun is doing a pretty good job of warming things up.
Dennis has a new ball in his hip socket with it being literally driven home into his femur. What a blessing that the socket didn’t shatter.
Dennis, my ole cowboy, is in pretty good spirits at the hospital. I think by this time of the afternoon he may well be in a different unit of the hospital. Dennis has had an irregular heat beat, arrhythmia, for his entire life. It can be called atrial fibrillation. Often the word pacemaker has been spoken of in the past, but nothing going forward. Pills can’t do it all.
When I went into the portal of his records, I could see by the Echo that was done last year, there was significant change and not to the good. When Dennis and I called back and forth at noon, they were waiting for a bed in the cardiac unit.
When so many of his vitals are right on target, Dennis needs to have what will serve him the best. He has a good heart and it may well need to be given a consistent beat.
I did call my brother in Iowa. He had had a shattered hip socket via a car accident. Lots of screws were needed. Calvin wished Dennis well and was not as wordy as he usually is. Hmm.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
