Yeah Tams, the ONE thing I thought I would NOT need in London that I could safely leave in Maine (as I had run out of space in my suitcase)was my LL Bean special snow boots!!

If they had wanted to know what was wrong with you Micca, why didn't you tell them to just ask me, I'd have told them staright out. But they didn't ask so I'm not telling. Good to see you're about town now. So when's the next visit?

No. He left his fleece here. His boots are at Jacqui and Kendall's. I am still dealing with his shoes.

Be careful on the ice, Micca. It hurts more than your pride when you fall on it - the voice of experience.

What he didn't say was that the Rioja was still there but his gas had expired.

First , and most sincerely, my thanks to you all who have contributed postings, and healing energy that have helped me greatly during what was, and could have been a very scary time What happened?, I hear you ask,
Well, on Saturday 17th January I had coffee at Liz the Squeaks and set off home to get ready to go to Barcombe for the big sing on my way I suddenly developed very severe motion sickness and tunnel vision, I lay on the sofa to see if it would pass and it didn't so after 30 mins I called 999 and asked for an ambulance which arrived while I was still on the phone to the Emergency services. They did all the Emergency tests and heart attack stuff and still were not happy so took me off to the A&E at the local University Hospital, A very smooth ride in the ambulance, without a vulgar siren or fuss. at the Hospital they wheeled me into the A&E dept, where the floors where a bit uneven and that made the motion sickness worse so I threw up all over the cubical and the opposing wall, (a cast of about 8 feet) luckily there was no one in the line of fire . They did a CAT scan and kept me in overnight. The following morning 9Sunday) the doctor saw me and told me they feared I was very close to a stroke so the altered the meds I was already on and prescribed some new stuff and let me go home with strict instructions to return rapidly if ANYTHING happened.
PT2
I went to work as normal Monday and Tuesday (my job is closer to the Hospital than my home, only about 100 yards from A&E) and everything was fine until I got home at 1 pm Tuesday, when suddenly a large patch of opacity appeared in my lower left field of vision and was there no matter which eye I closed, or even both. I called the NHS direct help line and they suggested very strongly I went to A&E right away!! So I did and was admitted as a patient, the kept me for 10 days as a (I think ass-covering)precaution and to get the necessary tests done, Echo Cardiogram, MRI, sonogram of the blood vessels in my neck etc, so I have confirmation that
1 I have a heart and it works
2 I have a Brain!!!
They have done a complete MOT on me apart from kicking the tyres and commenting unfavourably on the state of the Bodywork ( I told them I tried the Body Shop last year for a replacement but they had nothing in my size). so they let me out again on Friday evening. I have to see the consultant on Monday morning and find out what I can (and maybe cannot) do and what meds I need and for how long etc
So again A big Thank you to you all, especially Kat and Chance for starting the threads and to everyone who contributed energy and thought,
in Gratitude
Micca

He goes back to the clinic on Monday where they will fill him in on all of the particulars. I expect he'll share some of it with us, after. Apparently they were not alarmed at what they saw in the tests as they have let him go!*bg*

As posted in the other thread. Greedy bugger has to have two doesn't he....


Latest news Thursday 11.30am, he's waiting on results of another scan and may be home tomorrow.

There are lots of things he needs to do for his health.... none of which he'll like....

There are lots of things we could do for his own good. He won't like those either.

Another foot or two of snow falling in Maine. I am saving the candles for when the power goes out. But you are still in my thoughts and prayers, Micca.
Sunday is Super Bowl Sunday so I bought a copy of The Office UK and still have a bottle of champagne left from New year's. A toast to you once you are home.

Another test or two and I think they will have him sorted out, safe and sound. The one thing he has been very sure of: 'tis better for him to be there than wind up in A&E, again and have to go through all of that poking and prodding etc!

Right now, for the rest of it:

I give thanks for Micca's complete good health and well being. I give thanks for this or something better for the highest good of all concerned. So mote it be.

After a very unfortunate afternoon spent avoiding a strange man in the Goodwill because he had gastric distress and was clearing whole sections where ever he went, we (Jacqui, Tami and I ) discovered it was actually Micca creating the stench. And we had to ride in the car with him.

To think he blames it on the cat.

Yup the purple gloves are nitrile. They come in slightly different materials (still nitrile but with different properties) in a very dull grey and a rather fetching turquoise.....
