News, and It's Not Good

I have some news for Line of Departure subscribers especially. Unfortunately it's not good. Today I got a bad diagnosis at a doctor's office, and my driving will be curtailed for the foreseeable future. No, it's not a DUI, nor is it connected with substance abuse. It's my heart, and it's been malfunctioning in a frightening manner. I have to get on the schedule with my invasive cardiologist, yes that's a thing, to get a pacemaker, as soon as possible.

As a result, I will not be driving as I was, and not visiting the Line of Departure Post Office box as regularly as I have since I started in 1991. I will be working on Issue 83 though, especially as I have extra time that I was spending driving, and going to the gym (that's off limits too for the time being).

So if you're a subscriber and would like to renew, or someone interested in starting a new subscription, please use the Line of Departure PayPal page. I'll get your order a lot sooner than I will if you send it to the PO box, and I make a rare trip there.

Comment by Jim Werbaneth on Sunday: Thanks Wayne. I'm actually doing better now, and will be seeing the surgeon for my follow up on Thursday.

The funny thing is that before this procedure, I really, really wanted it, to get this old problem fixed once and for all. Then afterward, I started hearing from people who said that I looked and sounded a lot better. Some noticed how sick I appeared over the last couple of years. Hopefully now I'll keep on hearing that I'm visibly healthier.

So I have no regrets, except that I couldn't have gotten my pacemaker years ago.

Comment by Wayne Rotella on Sunday: Sending you positive thoughts. Get better.

Comment by Jim Werbaneth on Friday: Well, I'm back, and the procedure was a success. I might die, but it won't from having my heart stop on its own, not any time soon!

Comment by Jim Werbaneth on September 9, 2019 at 6:33pm: I'm going into the hospital tomorrow for my pacemaker. Hopefully in a month my heart condition will just be an unpleasant memory.
