Ten years ago I was writing several blogs on various subjects - F1 motor racing, Music, Classic Cars, Great Romances and, most crushingly, a personal journal that included my thoughts on America, memories of England and Africa, opinion, humour, writing and anything else that occurred. It all became too much (I was attempting to update the journal every day) and I collapsed, exhausted and thoroughly disillusioned in the end.
So this blog is indeed a Toe in the Water, a place to document my thoughts in and on WdC but with a determination not to get sucked into the blog whirlpool ever again. Here's hoping.
I did not have to travel to the Land of Echocardiograms to have them take pictures of my ticker. Instead, a couple of technicians from that land arrived, pushing/driving this monstrosity of a machine into my hospital room, where once they had it parked, opened it, and proceeded to cover my chest with some KY Jelly.
I am due for another echocardiogram in three months; I will travel to and see the Land of Echocardiograms then.
