"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

The Wheels are in Motion

Pacemaker Interrogation. . .check.
EKG. . .check.
Labs for INR level. . .check.
Talked to MD's about maintenance Amiodarone dosing. . .check.
Waiting. . .waiting. . .waiting. . .for a signature.

They say they are coordinating a follow-up visit with Dr. Bromberg, probably for a couple of weeks from now, and future labs, probably on Wednesday and then again next week.

Connie's off the monitor now and free to roam and go see the fish and go outside, etc. However, I'm afraid to leave the room for fear we'll miss the "green light" to get out of here!

I've got a bunch more pictures to put up, but I've already packed away the camera and will do it after we get settled at home.

Thanks again for all your prayers.

p.s. Our roommate (the Vianney bound one) ended up being moved back to the CICU yesterday afternoon because of the irregular heart beat and high heart rates. They are administering an IV medicine hoping to control it. If that works, then they will have to monitor him for 24 more hours and then make sure he tolerates switching to an oral med. He's here at least till Tuesday, which is lowering his spirits a bit since he was set to be released Sunday. Please keep him and his family in your prayers.
