Hi, this is Janet L again!

My husband Will is having an Ablation near his heart on January 10.
He has Afib making him tired and weak and meds are not helping. He has been unable to go for walks and gets out of breath if he tries. We are getting the Advanced Directives from our lawyer as needed by the hospital. We both hope this procedure will help him feel better, although he is 81 and has Dementia and heart failure. His feeling unable to do normal activities has caused him to be depressed and we certainly don’t need that!
Praying he will feel better soon.

HI @janet7, I hope evrything goes well and that the procedure gives your husband some relief.

Will hasn’t had a good day. He is very weak and out of breath, and we may have to go to the ER. I am getting frightened about him feeling so bad. We are still waiting for the Ablation next Wednesday. In the meantime, I can take him to the ER because that is what doctors tell me to do if he feels worse. If he refuses to go to the ER, I will have to call 911.
