Home Sweet Home

 

I’m home y’all, and it feels so good.

home sweet home

The ablation procedure was a success. The ECHO today showed that my heart was functioning normally. The doctor says that he will be able to tell its true success in 2-3 months.

Of course, I do not remember a thing from the procedure. They took me back around 8:30 AM, and the procedures lasted until 1:30 PM. The anesthesia worked like a charm.

Thanks to J, Monique, my sister Colette, and my dad for waiting so patiently during this time.

Last night I really tried to sleep, but it is nearly impossible in the hospital. Nurses, aides, etc were in my room almost every two hours taking blood pressure, temperature, and blood samples.

I have been on the couch since I was released today, and it feels great to be home. I was told that I would feel flu-like symptoms, and that is exactly how I feel. I am quite weak, but it is normal.

Thanks for the continued prayers and well wishes. I appreciate hearing from you all.

Fall y'all

Home, y’all!

  1. Yeah Ron so happy you are home and feeling better. It will be good to get in your own bed and not have anyone poking at you. So happy to hear you did so well and the heart is doing great. I know how scared you were and so happy you can be at ease now. Wishing you a great recovery and now you have lots of time to blog hop and pinterest and rest!!!!!!

  11. Ron, I'm sorry I haven't posted before now. My daughter was just diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma. Please know I have been praying for you all during this time. I am so happy that your procedure was a success and you are resting comfortably. My girlfriend that lives in NOLA had the cardiac ablation several years ago and it was a complete success. Continued prayers coming your way. And many BIG hugs as well Ron!
