Pops in the Hospital

Fantastic news ya'll...

My dad is in the hospital ... I was out enjoying myself with some friends and our dogs at this restaurant called Buzina Pop. I was through 2 glasses of Malbec and some Carne Seca appetizer watching Obama SMASH McCain with glee and then I get a call and normally i don't answer "unknown" phone calls. But something told me to answer the call.

I answered it.

It was my mom, she had news ... "Dad's in the hospital ..."

I think my heart stopped. He's still in the hospital today, awaiting his Cardiac Catheterization in order to be able to give him a proper diagnosis.

Why is he there? How did he get there? Well according to dad ... he was at work and suddenly he felt his heart racing and he felt dizzy, faint and weak and short of breath. All signs of a heart attack or possibly Atrial Fibrillation. But we can't be sure until the results of the cath are complete ... they said his appt was for 10am ... but it's 11:45am and he STILL hasn't gone in. I'm not surprised. Not at all. Standard procedure according to my experiences in the field of cardiology & cardiac surgery. Hurry up and wait.
