Good Morning! Already April? I must have missed quite a lot! I was released from the hospital last Thursday afternoon, but have not found the energy to drop by until today. There is only very little I remember on what had happened. I know I did not feel well. I must have dropped from my chair, the noise waking up Petra. I woke up three days later in the hospital. Petra told me she had called 112 (our 911) in the middle of the night. About 10 minutes later, a helicopter landed nearby and took me to the heart unit in Hamburg. Geez, I missed my first helicopter ride! I was "on the table" in no time at all. I am still not sure what they did there, although they explained it to me. From what I understood, they carved some type of texture into my heart they call a maze, which prevents tachycardia. Well, it must have worked - I am still around. I am grateful I have no memory on all of this. Full recovery will be a long way, but I am going for it, step by step, even if they are little steps only. I am not the man I was before, still shocked by what has happened.Still, there is lots of pain as well. There will be a series of check-ups ahead of me, each requiring a two-day stay in the heart clinic in Hamburg. The first one is scheduled for Thursday/Friday.  I hope everything will work out. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers.
