I have been meaning to post these for quite a while and keep........ (what?)........FORGETTING! Ya nailed it, my friends! smile

The first is a concerned Bill in Dondra's hospital room during her last (3rd) admission.......

[i]This one is what atrial fibrillation looks like. See those two beats real close together? Those are it, imagine your heart doing all that extra beating all night long if you didn't have meds.

Anyway, I hope I did this right and you can see these pics. I'm going to hit the PREVIEW button now, Roger. wink

Thanks

Bill

Hey Bill, it's good to see your face.

Maybe not the best circumstances but I'll take it.

Take care.

Re: My First Selfies

Those bags have been with me all my life, Peter. They're inherited. Plastic surgery fixed the top lids because of something called "hooding" which made driving (when I still did) unsafe,  so insurance covered it. It won't cover the bags underneath, however. That's considered "cosmetic".

Re: My First Selfies

Good to see ya Bill - one of my grandmothers (YEARS ago - she's gone now, Rip gram) had surgery to remove excess droopy eye skin too - lucky for me, hers don't appear to be inherited.  HI!  Good to see ya.

Re: My First Selfies

Bill is still MIA, folks. Read the posts. Bill said in another thread that he was thinking about taking some time off so I'm guessing that is what he's doing. He'll show up, soon, full of pee and vinegar so ya'll better look out.

Re: My First Selfies

I just received an email form Bill.

He is a bit busy with some medical issues with Dondra at present.
From the sound of things he doesn't have time to visit this site right now.

You can bet your E strings that he will be back musicating soon.

If you're so inclined you might throw some prayers his and Dondra's way.

Thanks Chordie for the years of music and advise.

Re: My First Selfies

Hey Everyone!

Just checking in to let you know we're fine. We got out of the hospital from having the ablation yesterday and even though her heart had to be started and restarted 3 times, she 's fine. That was my main worry. I had been having nightmares with doctor-types walking around with a paddle in each hand, buzzing. Those were dreams I have no desire to experience again.

As always (seems like always) thanks for the prayers, thoughts and good mojo from all of you.

I'll check in again later.

Re: My First Selfies

Hey Dondra, I'm sure that being married to a Musicator Extraordinaire must put you under a lot of pressure, but I'm sure you're up to it and can hold it together.
Best wishes to you and Bill.
