The Day That Was Yesterday



Yesterday was quite a day, as you tell from Premium T.'s blog here. Her son -- age 23 -- is well; the diagosis, mercifully, has been downgraded from a mild heart attack to a spasm. From what T. tells me, that's essentially an angina. Moreover, there's no damage to his heart and the cardio doc seems certain that it was a function of recently prescribed meds, which to me sounds like there's little danger of a recurrence. Reilly's spirits are fine -- better than mine would be under the circumstances. He's adamant that we not return to Seattle...

I'm a substitute for another guy...

We were able to take in some of the spectacular scenery of Achill Island's incomparable Atlantic Coast Drive and Minaun Heights:

Thanks for the additional information that wasn't on T's place.

What a relief!

What a shock. It's a wonder T didn't have a heart attack herself.

Love, C.

I nearly did.

And now the cardiologist says that it was indeed a classic heart attack. (Just writing those words puts me into a panic.) But minimal damage to the heart itself. He may even be released tomorrow.

I'm getting palpitations just reading this.
