Journal Entry – My Surgery
William Worrall Mayo born in 1919 described as an English Immigrant and country doctor, and I have seen photos of him with his horse and buggy. Dr. Mayo always saw his patents in a suit. When William James Mayo (Dr. Will) and Charles Horace Mayo (Dr. Charlie) became surgeons, they kept their farther legacy and…

Journal Entry – My Health II
I had my visit with the cardiologist this morning, and the discussion went well. My heart rate expands when I get an infection, as was pointed out with my sinus and urinary track infections, with the problem being that I do not know when my heart rate has increased. To make a long story short,…

Journal Entry – My Health
The breaking news today is: my inters are leaking out of my body.” In scientific words, I have three hernias. One on the right side (the big one), one on the left side, and one in the center (the belly button). This all sounds and fell routine until the doctor states that he will have…

Journal Entry – My Health VII
At 5:00 yesterday, I was told that I could go hime after spending the full day just waiting. Waiting for what? I do not know. The part that is so difficult to understand is that after my heart was shocked on Monday not doctor or medical staff came in to tell me about my medical…

Journal Entry – My Health VI
This has been a long day, but I am not as tired as I have been since I have been here. Or, even Fort Atkinson. The patient care here is not the greatest here, since they do not keep us well informed. My procedure was scheduled for 10:30 this morning. Then we heard that it…

Journal Entry – My health IV
Today was another long day. They were working on me until 2:00, and from 2:00 until 5:00 is really hard to get back to sleep again, but they were not working on me too much today. I have really struggled with a long day, since I was really tired and had a headache and never…

Journal Entry – My Health III
I feel like it has been another long day, but I did sleep well last night. Based on my feelings, maybe too long, but I needed the sleep. Up until 1:00, it was boring around the Fort Atkinson Hospital. At about 10:00, they decided to shock my heart, and, since I had breakfast, they could…

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder – WWII
I just listened to the end of the book, Masters of the Air, by Donald L. Miller, and he made a statement that caught me off guard about how the bombing for those that were in the bunkers during the bombing. He stated evidence from research after WWII that those traumatized in the bunkers never…
