It's been.... interesting. A couple days getting ready for New Years Eve at Doc's and everything is ready to go. 11:45, I open a case of champagne and pour about 100 flutes all set up for staff to pass out.
Great! everyone has their glass ready for midnight.
11:55, I look for my wife, because I am always at her side at the stroke of 12.
Not at the bar, none of the tables contain my wife. I have a girl check the lady's room. Then I notice the office door is open and the light is on. That door is ALWAYS locked when there are customers in the building. I stick my head in and find my wife clutching her chest, barely conscious. I get her to her feet and start walking her out the door. My security/bouncer sees us and scoops her up and I run ahead to get the truck door open.
As I back out of my parking spot, I hear the DJ and the crowd; 5,4,3,2,1 Happy New Year!
I spent the beginning of 2015 at South Baldwin Hospital.
Cardiac enzymes and EKG are negative for MI, but it appears her angina has returned with a vengeance. She refused to stay beyond that point and we were home about 5 AM.
NOW she tells me that she had been having some pain since her visit to Florida for Christmas.
Shannon (current project) stayed with her while I made an appearance at our staff Christmas party that had been set back because of the wife's trip.
We had Ribs a la Megan, Escargot a la Max, a Cajun Shrimp Boil a la Ernie, Collards and Black Eyed Peas a la Lauri and Cajun Corn Bread a la Debbie. We even played Jenga with Jeremiah's super sized Jenga set. Pictures to follow.
I brought the Mrs a plate. She ate her snails and I put her back to bed.
I don't doubt that the doctors will want to do more angioplasties and put in another stint or 4, but the wife says no more doctors and hospitals.
