Title: Bye Bye for now from Jeannine and John
Post by: Jeannine on April 10, 2009, 22:37:44
Hi all, well it is time to say goodbye   as my pooter will go off tomorrow pm.

We will still be managing to fly out on Monday after spending the night in London on Sunday night  despite a last minute hitch.

I had to get an ambulance for John on Wednesday, I almost lost him., he apparently went into complete heart block, not a pretty sight but the crew were there in minutes, he repeated it in the ambulance and again at the hospital, then they stabilised him and a few hours later they stuck a pacemaker in and he is now  fine, came home today.

I have to say the hospital were truly outstanding as they got it all done so fast as they said he would be fine after and if they could get all the afterchecks done in time we could travel..and they did.

He has to be careful and no lifting but he is OK to go.

So my friends we are off as planned.. I will log in ASAP from the other side.

We have found a lovely apartment from the end of April and our stuff arrives the ame week.

Think about us on Monday,50th wedding anniversary in the air..dare not join the Mile High Club now due to the pacemaker , but his heart is working now so that is good enough for me. We plan to fly on our 60th so....

God Bless you all, have a super season

My love to everyone

XX Jeannine

Jeannine!....you are INCORRIGIBLE!  ;D ;D ;D

Thank God J is fit to fly and I hope the journey goes well. Please promise me that you will ask if there's any chance of an upgrade because of this recent blip to make J's flight as comfortable as possible (and a mention of The Anniversary wouldn't go amiss, either  ;)) If an upgrade isn't possible, I don't know what you feel about asking for bulkhead seats in the Sardine Section (or even refusing them if you're offered - there are pros and cons - you can check out here www.airlinequality.com )  Will you need wheelchair(s) or transport help for you and your carry-on luggage? Even if not, you can certainly ask if you can be boarded first, at check in. Yep! I think that's a Good Idea 8)

In fact, I'm SO full of Good Ideas, I wonder if you'd like your Personal Assistant (me) to come along with you? ;D

Hmmm...menage a trois on your wedding anniversary? P'raps not :P

But I WILL be with you in spirit on Monday and until we hear from you again when you're in Canada.

Signing off with very much love to and John,

Maybe too late to catch you before you leave, but no doubt you'll pick this up when you get settled.

So sorry you had a last minute shock,but glad your plans weren't disrupted. Have a safe journey and make sure everyone on the plane knows it's your 50th soyou can have a real party! ;D

Look forward to hearing all about your new home,although i'm sure it won't compare with Hull! ;D

Hi Jeannine, reading about John antics, makes me so proud that the hospital were able to so much for him in such a short time. It must have been a very worrying few hours for you and I wish you both well.

I actually think its rather romantic that you are crossing the Atlantic on your Golden wedding anniversary to begin another new chapter in your life, I wish you both well and look forward to your updates when you are settled, lots of love and good wishes x x x

I have been passing on your sweetcorn info. It is so useful. I wish you health and energy.  You have contributed hugely to our knowledge here, and I hope you make a successful new life and continue to tell us stuff about growing squashes etc etc ......

Happy Anniversary to you both for tomorrow.  I hope you have a good day.  Of course, your special day will be much longer than normal as you will be able to celebrate it for those extra hours!  Have a good flight.

I am sorry to hear that John was taken ill but so pleased that they were able to fit a pacemaker so quickly.  I had one fitted in November and everything is ticking over beautifully so hopefully John will also have a new lease of life.

You will soon be back with family and friends in Canada and look forward to hearing from you when you are more settled and have Internet access.

Love to you both from Pauline  x
