I have to admit that I am apprehensive about it. Just the thought of anyone going into my body via an artery and messing around with my heart gives me the heebie-jeebies.
Connie and I are still trying to avoid contact with people as much as possible because of COVID, especially now with Connie's greatly reduced immune system, and here I will be going into the hospital, right where people suffering from COVID would likely be going too. Connie wants to stay with me the entire time, but I really don't want her to be in that environment for any longer than absolutely necessary. Of course, there is always the possibility I could pick up that virus and bring it home. Which is a thought that scares the hell out of me.
The surgeon seemed to feel I should get this done as soon as possible. I don't know, I am having second thoughts about doing it now with the increased cases of COVID in Florida. Or maybe I am just using this as an excuse to keep from getting someone poking around in my heart?
I wish we had our old life back.
