My Father Was Admitted Yeasterday With Chest Pains...

As some may remember, my father had a ICD implanted last year - basically a device that will shock the heart if it decides to stop. Yesterday he was complaining about chest pains so his private nurse brought him to the hospital - they kept him over night for tests. Turned out to be heartburn! My brother looked at his med/food log that the nurse keeps for him. Looks like over the past three days he has had pepperoni pizza, chicken parm, garlic bread, a bottle of red wine, a bunch of fried eggs and spuds, two lobster rolls, ice cream, and a large Greek salad!

Gee, I wonder why he has chest pains??? At 87 at least he is enjoying himself...

+100.

At 87, I'm thinking you should eat whatever the hell you want as long as you like it. The alternative, eating healthy boring stuff to maybe extend your life another year or two, seems like a waste of that life.

I'm glad he ended up OK, and more power to him.

Damn, that food would give young Sidney heartburn! Kudos to your dad!

My sentiments exactly - what else is she doing for him that makes him go on despite all that food?

Has he had a hot young roofing girl come out and climb his ladder?

I won't ask if he's got pics, because he probably does.
