New day................


Hello Saturday...............[ram27bat]

Mornin' Ram. I slept in... didn't get up until 7.

Happy Saturday ya varmints.

Cowboy caviar last night, explosion this morning.

[quote=Ram27]I had the same issue Eight,had the shock treatment done and put on Xarelto . So far no issues. Another follow up appointment this Wednesday. Wishing you a speedy recovery.[/quote]

Shock treatment. Yikes. Hope it is working for you. That wasn’t one of the options offered to me. Mine were #1 Three different medications, #2 cardiac ablation surgery, or #3 pacemaker. Going for option #2 near the end of November.

Once they get in there, the success rate is somewhere around 70%. The downside with surgical intervention (other than the 29% chance of it not working) is it often only works for a period of time (as little as five years, on average seven).

Ridiculous.

As noted, wishing you a speedy recovery Eight.

My older brother had the ablation procedure about a year ago. He is one of the 70%ers I guess. Very active riding bikes, splitting wood, etc.

Hope it works in your case brother.

Thanks, Ded. It’s been a journey.

Alright.
A little breakfast and footie, then off to visit a friend at the hospital. Have known him since kindergarten. A great guy who never bitches about his disability. Can certainly aspire to be more like him.

42 and sunny.

30nein.

Good Saturday Morning to All! It's 72° on the way to 87° today.


[-o< for a great result and a fast reovery for Eight.

😎 Dudes...

Step-father did the pacemaker thing about twenty years ago.. at the time they told him it would give him another 10.. so he's got that going for him... FIL wears one now too.. wishing you well Eight.. 😟

Morning, soccer game done for the oldest, really wet and cold field. Another hour and on to the next soccer game for the middle child.

72 and partly cloudy. High 75. On the patio with a Bloody Mary and a PLPC watching football and the smoker.


Take care of yourself Russ! 🙏

Some close games today.

Prayers for 70% and longer than 7 years.

Clean up your incoming pm box so I can send you a pm about this kind of stuff.

85F/65 today and 76F/58F on Sunday. Can't wait for things to cool down to unseasonably cool temps forr the next couple of days, even thou it could easily just be a teaser.

Went to Costco to return something, pick up some Rx, bread and berries (rasp and black).

Just watching Oklahoma v Texas right now while I await the bigger game tonight. Texas better get its chit together right away or it will suffer a huge upset.

Wife is at a conference all day and half-day tomorrow.

Nothing else really going on.

My Dad has a pacemaker and a good friend of mine (my Massachusetts adopted Dad) has a pacemaker. It's one of the miracles of medicine that is keeping them alive. Handful of years ago my Dad had to get his replaced since the capacitor or something was getting near it's replacement date. Putting one in and replacing one is regular stuff nowadays. Go in the morning, get it installed and your home by suppertime assuming there is no complications.

When my Dad got his replaced they asked him if he wanted the old one back. He said "Sure." They sent it out to get sanitized and decommissioned or whatever then engraved his name and replacement date on it as a souvenir. Kinda funny if you think about it.

Tree Uno NINE!
