Update for Merrel. He would much rather be sitting in this chair in his living room than spending the day in a hospital room but for now he needs to be in the hospital room. His Dr. was very concerned about his much-too-low heart rate, 37, and suggested that he go to the ER yesterday. Devoted son, Ronald, came out yesterday morning and drove him to St. John's. (I went down as soon as I got out of my gown and that not-too-handsome house coat.) He was immediately taken to an examining room where he was monitered and given another EKG. Finally at 4:00 P.M. he was moved to a private room. Today he is taking a stress test which will determine what needs to be done next. His Dr. doesn't think he needs a pace-maker at this time, however, the results of the stress test may prove differently. This event was not on our schedule but we want what is best for him.
More info as I know more,
Love to all,
Dortha
