K had two more heart stoppages (ventricular fibrillation) yesterday, rolling back her eyes and passing out each time. The Cardiology docs made the heart issue the top priority.
She had surgery last night, to install a temporary pacemaker wired through a vein in her leg. Then this morning, they installed a permanent ICD (combo pacemaker and defibrillator). She has been sleeping comfortably since then.
She'll be getting her dialysis treatments in the hospital.
The neck surgery is deferred until Monday soonest.
