When we got here, we figured, since we didn't know anybody in the area, we'd just check out some of the newer casinos, look at the shops and see whatever free shows were in the area. But, the very first night we were here, we were looking on the internet and found out some fellow Boomers were in the area, looking for other Boomers. We got in touch with them and the second day we were here, Tuesday, we got together for dinner and cards. How cool is that?

The very next morning, Wednesday, Ron waited until I got up, to tell me that he thought he needed to go to the hospital because he had been experiencing some tightness in his chest for the past few days. I just looked at him, wondering what took him so long to tell me...anyway, off we went to urgent care, where they gave him an EKG and and were concerned because his oxygen level seemed to be low. They ended up sending him, by ambulance, to one of the hospitals in the area, where he stayed the rest of that day and overnight. They gave him numerous EKG's, blood tests, an echo cardiogram, the dye test through his arteries and one other test throughout the night. The next day, they determined that his heart and arteries are all doing fine and thought that maybe his acid reflux could be the cause of it all....well, that was a relief, let me tell you!
