Thursday 01/10/15

What a day!

Lots of work done and packed up for MSM & the lab. Nearly out of paper as it didn't turn up.

Another day of lovely warm weather - I approve of this October so far.

Had the following from Mum:
------------------
Hi

Dad had another attack during breakfast so I rang 111.   He had a very bad attack whilst the paramedic was here.   He asked for an urgent ambulance immediately and we got to A&E very quickly.   They had trouble stabilising the heart beat and he had two very bad attacks and a few minor ones during the course of the morning.   After lunch, not that we got any, various doctors and two specialists came to see him and it was decided to implant a pacemaker today.   Up we went to the Cardiac unit, more things stuck into him and around 3.15 he was taken off for the procedure.   His specialist said it can take up to two hours, well he's been trouble all morning, their words not mine, so I have come home for food.   I have to ring around 6.45 and I have a number you can ring and maybe speak to him, 01244 366529.   I have no idea if I can go back but they are keeping him in overnight to monitor him.

From a very shaken Mum
------------------

I called her before I left and she was still quite upset but had got home as no point hanging about.

Met Lou in the Isaac & she poped out to call mum as well & check she was OK.

Watched Wales edge past Fiji & then hold off the late surge. Callled Tim at half time & got told he was watching it on catch-up, was 13 minutes in, didn't want to know what happened & told to go away....

Called Mum about 19.30 and she'd decided not to go to see Dad as he was having his tea (plus buses rubbish). I suggested that she went to the club for a drink & to be with friends. Plus she could fill everybody in at once rather than hammering the phone.

The I called Dad. He seemed a light brighter and happier. The operation was a success and he was already feeling a lot better which was good news. They were keeping him overnight to make sure it was working properly.

Watched Liverpool play like excrement against Swiss minnows FC Sion (who held up a bannner demanding 'Justice Pour Le 96") managing a draw.

Long past time for Rogers to collect his P45 and play like that against Everton & he will be getting it.
