MFM update 4:25 PM AZ time 2/19/2013 Tuesday

Hi, all!!! Thank you again for all the vibes, etc. They really DO make my situation enormously better.
.
Still in the hospital. Not in any danger, but sometimes pretty uncomfortable (respiratory difficulties) and my heart
is beating too rapidly and somewhat irregularly. I always worry that they're going to send me home WAY too soon
and I think they were considering that until I said no no no no no. Now, they're taking it more seriously and longterm
and they're going to start medication to "convert" my heart to a normal rhythm. If that doesn't work in a day or so,
they'll go the somewhat riskier CLEAR!!!!!! shock paddles route. They put me out for that... as it's VERY unpleasant.
.
Your Working Boy,

I did not know. Sorry to hear this. I'll be sending magic cardio-version, heart waves, that will convert you to sinus rhythm, with DU love. Lub Dub, Lub Dub, Lub Dub.

And you go back to a nice two step and not that fox trot you have going on. No galloping allowed.
