Wendy's Good News and Van's Blues

Written by Nancy (Wendy's sister)
Today I stopped by to wish Van a happy birthday. He immediately lit up and showed me all the TRUE BLUE gifts from the day before. Then the next minute he was asleep on the couch. He was pale and weak. Van went to the emergency room tonight with chest pains and dizziness.

Wendy had her cardiologist appointment this afternoon. GOOD NEWS!! She is a candidate for the heart procedure. It is an out-patient routine procedure and has a 99% chance of being successful. AND...she is able to have the procedure done on Wednesday...only two more days!! She is not to take anymore medicine between now and Wednesday except sleeping pills which explains why I am typing for a sleeping Wendy. After the procedure, she isn't to lift anything for two weeks but her heart should be able to handle stress. Wendy was determined to go to the weekly Thursday chemo visit with Van this week and now she can.
