During Kay’s visit to the ER on November 12 (before we left for the Rio Grande Valley), an EKG indicated that she had a right bundle branch block (RBBB), a heart block in the electrical conduction system. During a RBBB, the right ventricle is not directly activated by impulses traveling through the right bundle branch. Consequently, as a follow-up, this Monday she visited Dr. Giraldo, my cardiologist here in the RGV. He did not find anything seriously wrong, but ordered a stress test be done after the holidays. Seems like all we do these days is play golf and go to medical appointments!

Kay is hosting The Book Club Christmas meeting this year at our house in Hot Springs Village. Consequently, she flew home on Saturday to decorate the house, complete Christmas shopping, and attend several social functions.
