PFO Closure

All's well! Rob had his closure on Tuesday afternoon, and they kept him in the hospital overnight. He called me at 8:30 Wednesday morning and said he was ready to leave. He is doing great. We are thrilled there will now be an end to his taking the rat poison.

 

Last night we went to the professional hunters association banquet. A lot of his colleagues were there as it's an annual fundraiser and celebration towards the efforts of their professional work. This is the first time many of them had seen Rob since his stroke. It was humbling for many. He received a tremendous amount of encouragement and support from them all. I watched a lot of their faces of genuine concern as they stopped by to say hi. It makes them happy to see him walking, and talking. It concerns them that he struggles with his right hand. For a minute when he talks to his colleagues - he talks about their seasons - and you can tell he is totally immersed in conversation - with no thought for his stroke. He got to escape it for brief moments throughout the night. We're healing.

Hi,

Best of luck to you in PFO Closure

I had mine done June24,2005 and all has been well since then.

It is such a relief to have it done and piece of mind in preventing

a further stroke.

Take care
