Checkup

I did not sleep well, but fortunately, Diane did. She was off to her Cardiac rehab session, first thing. She is obviously doing well because they suggested she became a volunteer as she was doing so well. I suspect she will complete the course before she commits to anything like that.

After a spot of lunch, we headed for St Richard's. Diane had her post-op face-to-face with our local Cardiac Consultant. We arrived a bit earlier than necessary but Diane was swept into a side room for an ECG before the review. There was no hanging about. We had a lovely 20 minutes with the doctor and he was immensely pleased with the progress that has been made since the operation. He discussed various aspects of the medication and the performance and longevity of the carbon fibre valve. It all seems very positive and other than arranging for a base-level echocardiogram, that's all.

Quiet afternoon with the books though Kim called for a chat with Mum just as I started preparing dinner.
