Dad's Cardioversion


Tommorrow at 1 pm (EST) my dad (pictured with Drew at Thanksgiving) is having a electrical cardioversion to see if his heartbeat in the upper artia of his heart can be restored to a normal rhythm. Since they learned of his fibrillation, he has had medication to make sure he does not have a blood clot. As you can read in the article if you have a clot it can come dislodged during this procedure.

On October I posted my 2nd post of this blog about my dad's heart. It might be worth a another look at this time.

Appreciate your prayers for him.

Thanks for coming by my blog and writing your phenominal sentence with the "assigned" words. I check your blog every day; but I had not read the post from October about your dad (I think I discovered your blog in late November or early December.) I will certainly continue to pray for your dad. He is dear to me too.

Thank you. All the 'Shaw" side of the family is dear to him and me too.

I think we 'discovered' each other's blogs after in Dec. after I recieved your mom's Christmas letter with her blog site listed on it. I use blogarithm.com (maybe I found this on your sire?) so I can see when people have updated theirs and I read your's everytime too.

I was most proud of the reference to 'thick-skinned' to fulfill the wordplay requirement.
