Update to Forum Friends
Posted: Thu Dec 21, 2023 3:36 pm
Greetings All ...
My sincere apologies for my long absence from the Forum, since early October. Some of you already know the reason - but for others, here is an update.
My husband Rod suffered two sudden and unexpected heart attacks during October. The pain was completely atypical - in his back, not chest - and it was only the quick thinking and diagnosis of our GP that led us to a happy ending.
After a roller coaster ride through three hospitals, an angiogram, aborted stent procedure and multiple tests, he eventually received a triple bypass with open heart surgery at Prince Charles Hospital in Brisbane on 5 November.
The care and professionalism of medical staff all along the journey was amazing.
He is home and well and truly in recuperation now, but full recovery is still quite a way off.
Hope all of you have been enjoying your writing - I haven't yet caught up on any posts. Onward and upward for the new year, hopefully!
Cheers
Shelley
