back at last

Well Here it goes. I have been in the hospital . I had  a heart attack last Thursday, Ray called the ambulance and off we went to the hospital for treatment. the did the immediate treatment in emergency and then admitted me to the Cardiac floor. I had to stay in bed while waiting for an angioplasty. That happened on Tuesday afternoon at a different hospital which I went to again by ambulance,of course. No way I could walk LOL. I had to wait for some time before the coast was clear for the treatment. It took a bit of time and it was painful but worth it because it made me whole again. The doctor said to stay home for a few days. So I stay. I am feeling pretty good today. Tomorrow I see my family doctor as she has not seen me since the heart attack.
So things are going okay for now and I am happy.

I have had four sons in the past couple of weeks who are or have been visiting. Matthew came over today to visit with Adam and Jim who were here. Adam helped us with the Will and a codocil.
Jim has taken the wallpaper off the bathroom in preparation for painting. What a frightful job and it is only a small room. I am so grateful to both of them for the help they give us. 
Richard has gone back home with Kate. Peter has just come back from Geneva. So most of them are here at the moment, a great blessing for a mother. 
My dear daughter in law Caroline Matthew's wife came to visit me at the hospital . Lovely lady.
It has been a most eventful week.

I am looking forward to getting back to our regular routine and going out and about. I have had to cancel a date with my friend Mary and her husband in Washington state. I do not want to go into the states right now until I am certain everything is okay.
Sometimes these stents can cause a bit of a problem and the artery can collapse.   Very rare though.

No other news right now.

Oh my, I'm so glad that you're ok. I was very worried when I didn't see any updates from you! I hope you get well soon and feel better.
