Fun and games over the weekend

 Just when we thought we were settled into a new routine !!  

Friday evening Geoff’s heart decided to play up again so he was whisked off by ambulance from Abingdon to the JR.   Heart shocked and sent back to Abingdon.   Nicely settled back in his corner but his heart was having none of this.  Ambulance to JR a second time of the day.    Heat shocked back to rhythm again!

Whilst they were considering what to do next the fire alarm went off and all hell broke loose! At one stage I think Geoff thought he was going to be abandoned. The result of this after all the furore died down was that his heart objected again. Another shock back into rhythm.

By this time the Penny dropped and it was decided that a different approach was needed.

I think after all this time concentrating on the effects of the auto immune response, the cause of which may never be determined despite all the extensive tests they have done, the heart decided it was being ignored so decided to remind us that it was not entirely happy.

Thankfully this manifested itself whilst he was still in medical care. However this time he was in the- hands, of the cardiologists and I don't think the staff fully appreciated how little he could do for himself because of the nerve damage caused by the auto immune response. He still can do nothing for himself. Can't feed, go to the loo, walk or even work his phone or iPad! So his four days back in J R have been somewhat stressful for all.

On the outside we were worried about losing his bed in Abingdon just when he was settling into a routine of therapy.

Geoff was stressed as nobody was telling him what was going on.. The exception to this was a very nice consultant Who was there when I arrived and explained that they were going to do a catheter ablation as soon as possible. He went into a lot of detail most of which went over our heads but he did take the time which was great.

This was done on Monday and appears successful so far. Tuesday was a long long stressful day waiting to see it he would get his bed back in Abingdon

Thankfully 'The Eagle has landed' and he is back as of 10.30pm Tuesday

 Meanwhile back at the ranch Boe has been to Cornwall and collected her car, I have spent a lovely long weekend with friends in front of a roaring log fire most evenings being looked after so well.

I have now become more confident driving again,

Boe I are back aboard Petroc where the staff at Cropredy are so helpful and friendly that it makes life so much easier.

New we resume rehabilitation and hospital visiting with no idea of time. 

Someone said Christmas was just six weeks away😎😎😎😎
