We've had a little bit of excitement around here and I just couldn't write about it until I knew more.

Dan had some regular pre-op tests done, the usual bloodwork, EKG, etc. Same as always. When he had the EKG done the technician asked him when he had a heart attack, Dan said I haven't. As expected we received a telephone call from the office nurse the next morning. She asked Dan a whole slew of questions regarding all different kinds of chest pain, shortness of breath, etc, etc. Dan denied everything. She said that Dan's EKG this time was dramatically different from the one he had three years ago. Then she told Dan not to worry. She would have the anesthesiologist review the info and they would call back on Monday. (This was Friday). So, we had a very long weekend wondering what was going on.

Yesterday the nurse and the anesthesiologist called as promised. We really didn't get a conclusive yes or no did Dan have a heart attack. All they concluded was that he had no symptoms that would prevent him from safely having surgery on the 12th.

Dan and I decided that we would get a copy of the ekg from 3 years ago and of this one and take it to my cardiology appointment the week after Dan's surgery. We will feel better if doctor Li takes a look at it and then we will feel better. But, as it stands, he is still on for surgery the 12th. We don't know the time yet, they will call with that info.

I still seem to be having more good days than bad days. Yesterday was not a good day. But, today is better.
