Procedure removed about a quart of fluid from around my heart. I have a drain for a few days removing more. Most of the pain is gone. I can breath and talk without major shortness of breath. 😍
Still waiting for my procedure. They say it won't be until 4 PM. I haven't eaten since 9 PM last night. I will survive.
My procedure should be early afternoon today. Hoping for 12:01 PM. Meanwhile I'm still waiting I-I-I'm still waiting #TalkingHeads

Anyone see the 16 y/o hero life guard with 47? Wish someone correct the dumpster when he said the waves were normal for this time of year. I live here it's not normal. The waves were from remnants of a hurricane made worse by el nino and climate change. #FuckTrump
