this blog will be short as my left arm is really sore and hard to use. the pacemaker is in and working great. For the first time I can remember I don't feel my heart beating. It is just like it isn't there. I am tired but really believe this is going to be a turning point in my life. I have lost another 3lbs so the weight loss continues. God is so faithful and his mercy always amazes me. I am scheduled to be off work for 1 more week. I have a follow up appointment with my cardiologist Friday and hopefully he will allow me back to work. Bottom line, the pacemaker may be the best thing that has happened to me.
