I'm still here

So, 2am on Monday morning I wake up with this unbearable pain in my chest. I call the ambulance and I'm rushed off to the heart hospital. Many ECG's later, the heart specialist decides to do an angiogram at 1pm, and if he finds anything wrong he will do an angioplasty. He finds a severe restriction in one of the main arteries in my heart, so he decides to open up the artery and put in a stent. All done under local unaesthetic and within half an hour. I was kept in ICU overnight for observation and released this morning. I'm now safely at home, ready to fight another day and to enter this weeks challenge. ? It's amazing what the doctors can do nowadays.

Well done on surviving Pete!

Did you hear about the two Indian drug addicts that injected curry powder by accident? The one has now got a dodgy tikka and the other is still in a korma.

Weak I know but you probably needed cheering up.

Best regards and get strong.
