The heart monitor is on and activated. It is weird to think I have to wear this for 2 weeks but I think it will get me some answers. I continue to lose weight. Today, I have an appointment with my surgeon but I don't want any adjustments. At least not at this time. If I stop losing then I will want an adjustment. I have not heard back from my disability specialist since I called Thursday. I called again yesterday and really would like to hear back. I continue to be concerned this is going to go on for a while. But, I want to get to the bottom of this so I can have some peace of mind. Thankfully, I have a great wife and wonderful kids who love me and support me. Right now, the swelling in the left shoulder from the pacemaker continues. It can be painful but usually goes away.

Yesterday was a very special day for me. Cottia, my oldest daughter had a little accident at school and we had to take her to the medical center for some staples. After we left I got to spend the rest of the day with her. I took her to the farm so we could ride on the golf cart. then, we left and visited with my cousin. then, we bought fair tickets and went out to eat. I loved every minute of it. After our meal we took birthday invitations for my youngest daughter to my other cousin's house. Cottia was so sweet. It was one of the best days I have ever had.
