Dad's Pacemaker (part 2)

[skydivr]

Today my 79 YO Dad goes back into the hosptial to attempt his pacemaker install for the 2nd time. Some may rememember my previous thread about his heart surgery (stent) and pacemaker install. Well, the wound around the pacemaker became infected, and they had to take it out. He's waited about 6 weeks to heal; now today they are going to put it back in (on the other side of his chest). I will be staying with him tonight until they release him tomorrow.

I told him we could save a lot of money if we just went down to Walmart, got a dog training collar and strapped it around his leg...he got a kick out of that.

Would appreciate whatever .org best wishes out there.

His name is Roy.
