Pacemaker

[rickvs]

Quick update before I head out.

The folks at Baylor didn't like some of the readings they were getting from Rachal's heart -- specifically, the intermittent pauses in beat that sometimes stretched as long as five seconds. So they're putting in a pacemaker tomorrow morning. Her folks are in town -- and I won't say Rachal's looking *forward* to having a pacemaker, but she very much likes the idea that this might put a stop to some of the random passing-out spells that plagued her last year.

It's apparently a short-recovery procedure, and they may release her in a few days.

More as it develops. She seems to be doing okay with this, and I think so am I.

Phaed and I send our best. We've been thinking about y'all a lot lately. If you need to talk Phaed says you know how to reach him. (and if he's wrong and you don't, let us know.)

Y'all have been on one long, fucked up rollercoaster ride. I hope everything goes ok. I miss y'all. Let me know if there's anything I can do for you, ok? *HUGS*

Hon, I hope this all sorts itself out for both of your sakes.
*hugs* to both of you.
Let me know if there's anything I can do to help!
