March 1 - Heart is beating too fast, again...

I thought I would fill every one in on an additional procedure that mom will have tomorrow. Many of you know that mom has had periodic bouts with a condition that sends her heart racing. This has happened several times over the years. The recent surgery was not intended to cure this condition. However, the surgery has seemed to aggravate it. She was sent to the hospital to have her heart stopped and re-started a week or so ago (see Aunt Evs post). Since last Thursday it has been racing (beating twice as fast as it should). Today she saw Dr. Anding and he has ordered that tomorrow she go to the hospital to be anesthetized and her heart shocked back into normal rhythm. I am going to accompany mom and Aunt Ev and will let everyone know how it goes.
