We've been really busy unpacking, putting away, cleaning the house, visiting Aunt Peggy, contacting friends and relatives, etc. Today we spent quite a while at the hospital since Poppa had another episode of supraventricular tachycardia - his heart beats far to fast and his body/blood does not get enough oxygen. The fire department, ambulance crew and staff at the emergency department at the hospital were all fantastic. These episodes are scare-ey when they happen, but not dangerous if corrected in time. It is not a heart attack and his heart is not damaged - just the side effects of not getting enough oxygen. Once they get his heart slowed down to a normal rhythm, it is as if nothing happened. He is home and feeling fine - watching the 11pm news. All is well. I'll try to post a real blog entry tomorrow!
