“I dislike her intensely, but feel empathy for her and wouldn’t wish heart disease on anyone. Especially since I have a heart cath & possible stents next Thursday.”
I absolutely agree 100%! I don’t wish ill health on anyone. And like you, I detest O’Donnell. Hell, at least Roseanne grows Macadamias.
BTW, three sets of stents and a (mild?) heart attack for me in the last six months. Cath and stenting is a piece of cake and you’ll feel WAY better once your heart starts working properly again. Only hard part is laying flat on your back afterwards for a bunch of hours to avoid the risk of the Femoral artery popping open from where the cath was inserted. Arrange up front with your doc to keep you heavily medicated throughout that ordeal so your whole body doesn’t go into one giant muscle spasm. Morphine then is good. So is a big dose of a benzo if it’s a drug you’re willing to take.
Afterwards, it’s Plavix and an aspirin every day for a year to reduce risk of drug-eluting stents from clotting. You’ll probably easily bruise from that, but it’s a hell of a lot better than the alternative.
Good luck, feel better, and live longer!
Thanks for the advice. Take care...
