Hubby in Hospital

Dobie · 08-25-2008, 02:57 PM

Still thinking about you - make sure to take some time for you though, don't allow yourself to get run down during this difficult time!

I typed a long post, telling you all about what happened yesterday, and for some reason when I tried to submit it, I was no longer logged in and my post vanished. I don't have time to type it all again.

Bottomline. Hubby was converted to a normal heart rhythm yesterday with electric shock and is coming home this afternoon.

I have to run now because I have to run out of town for work this morning and back to pick him up after lunch.

Decided to tell you, but try to keep it short. He's doing great!! but I had quite an experience at the hospital yesterday. They stuck me in a waiting room for two hours for a 30 minute procedure and would not give me any information on hubby other than confirm where he was. I almost passed out I got so upset. But the important thing is he is fine!!!!!!! Thirty minutes after they took him in, he was converted and when I was finally allowed to go in his room, he was smiling and waving at me. The doctor forgot to communicate with family. He was in ICU for the procedure and they delayed opening ICU for visiting hours because of something going on inside, so of course I thought something had gone wrong.

I'm sorry you are going through all this, but I am glad hubby is doing better. I sometimes think that doctors forget that they are a CUSTOMER SERVICE field......

Glad everything worked out and he's coming home. I can understand how scary that would be, but it's behind you now. I'm sure he'll be glad to be home.

Just saw this today, so glad he is coming home. We will pray for both of you.

Marilyn,

Thats wonderful news. Hope he's on the mend and stays that way.
So sorry you had to go though all that at the Hospital though.
Waiting is always the worse part. I'll still keep you both in my prayers.

I'm so happy to hear that the procedure went well!

He's home!!!!! So glad and he is reeeeeallly glad. The house seems full again. He's felling good and ready to get some work done today. He's been worrying about how much this is costing us in lost income. Our insurance should cover most of the medical, but he's concerned about jobs he may have jeopardized by not getting back to people.

It will all work out for the good, I'm sure!!

We go to Houston tomorrow for him to see a specialist there about the ablation procedure. Not sure if it's just to visit or to do the mapping. We should find out more today.

Thank you all for you thoughts and prayers through this!!!! You are a wonderful group of ladies!!!!
