    Default Got out of the hospital last night.

    I wasn't feeling well all weekend, so my wife called the doctor Monday. She gave him the symptoms and he told her to get me to the emergency room. When we got there they xrayed my chest and found fluid. I have congested heart failure so they admitted me immediatly. They did 2 days of tests and treatment, they were going to put in a defibulator on Friday but I developed a high fever on Tuesday evening so that is out (they are going to try again in a week or two). They said there was no sign of a heart attack or phemonia, so they surprised me and discharged me last evening around 6 pm. Just lets us know how fragile our bodies really are.
    Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.

    I'm really sorry to hear of your illness. I, too, have come to understand how fragile life is and how fast something can hit you.

    I am wishing you a very speedy recovery.

    Things like that are really scary, I'm glad it wasn't more serious.
