About six weeks ago my husband had a funny turn and we had to take him to hospital in an ambulance.  His heart was beating at 165 beats per minute while he was lying on the hospital bed.  They gave him a sedative and then an electric shock to slow his heart down.  He spent the night in hospital, and has been taking blood thinning medication.   :scared:

My good news is that he had his outpatient visit today and has been given the all clear.  There is no damage to his heart and he can stop the medicine.   :happydance:

That's great news - glad he's all ok.
That must have been a bit scary for everyone.  :)

Yes, it was.  Hopefully something we won't have to go through again.

Thanks for the good wishes. :goodjob2:

No, we didn't think about the trip too hard. Because we went in Viv I drove, so he just sat and relaxed the whole way.  He did have a whine about how much walking we did while we were there, but not because he was unwell.  :whistler:

WE got 3 small remotes and a large one so I don't think I will worry  :goodjob:

Trish's Mum is 89 (and doesn't drive any more) she is a good sort.. But there is one of my x's that might get locked out..:whistler:

Trademen are funny... :rolleyes:  They came for an hour today at 3PM did 90% of the work and left at 4PM (By the look of it another 30 mins would have sorted it )  :undecided:

that is sad, but there always might be a chance, that at least some beasts have survived somewhere deep in wild.
