Thank you guys so much for all of your thoughts, prayers, hugs and support. You all must have superpowers, because Hubby got out of the hospital last night. It's just such a relief to have him home, I can't even tell you.
It turns out that his left bundle branch in his heart is partially blocked. He is on a bunch of drugs to help unblock it and lower his blood pressure. So it's not great news, but it's not horrible news either. We're slowly learning about it and working on making changes to our diet (we'd already cut out trans fats and switched to whole grains at home, at least). And we're going to use all the money we used to spend on our vices (eating out too much, alcohol, sometimes cigarettes - and don't worry, I haven't had any of the naughty vices lately) to join a gym.
So we're just trying to take this as a wake up call for a healthier lifestyle.
I will catch up with all of you soon.

Thank you SO much for updating, Mama! I'm so glad you have your hubby home. Many good wishes coming your way!
Thank goodness! I'm glad to hear this update.
What a relief!! I am so glad you caught this in time and that you had health insurance!!!!!
Yay! Glad he's home. And joining a gym sounds like an awesome idea. Good for you guys.
omg...i haven't visited you in a while and so much has happened!!
i'm glad to hear your hubby is home! what a scary time!!
it's interesting because, i just announced to my family last night that we are having a life style change of the food kind. because it's so important to take care of ourselves!! and, it starts with what we put in our mouths and exercise!!
so yay for you that you guys are taking care of that!

PHEW.
I've been concerned.
Hugs and love from me today to you both.
Thanks for the update! Good luck with the new lifestyle. Eating healthy can be boring, but heating up some veggies and baking or grilling a lean or small piece of meat takes so much less time than, say, lasagna.

Great news. Hospitals are icky. At least now you are both made aware of a potential problem and can start to remedy the situation. Lots of luck sweetpea!
