We received a call from our cardiologist’s office yesterday. We were promised that we would know this week when my heart surgery is to be scheduled, probably for Thanksgiving week. As a result, my wife called off our annual family Thanksgiving get-together. A GD is not due back from Europe where she just earned her Masters in Marine Science until the first week or so in December so we’re doing everything involving the holidays all at once.

My wife also received the results of the same two tests I just underwent and came out OK so that’s a relief!

The weather here in North Texas has taken on a definite Fall blend, with cool nights and days in the seventies.

My dialysis nurse Cindy has been promoted to a more senior management position within Fresenius, so more change is in the works for me. She has provided the best care, and we will sorely miss her.

Tech hint: If you like to watch programs on YouTube and are tired of the continuous interruptions for commercials AND are running a VPN, point your VPN to Albania. It seems that Google doesn’t currently have a translator for the Albanian language and does not include commercials for this feed. It works for us.
