Well, Mom is still procrastinating about setting a date for getting a pacemaker. Yes, still. A and I have talked to Mom about this and have encouraged her to choose a date and let us call to schedule the procedures. However, she is still "waffling".
For the past week or so, we have both heard how her pulse rate is up in the 50's now, so there is no need for the pacemaker. We have let Mom "waffle" since we do not want to force her to get a pacemaker unless she wants one. We have encouraged her to talk to people she knows who have a pacemaker. Everyone she talks to has told her that they IMMEDIATELY felt better. Still, she hesitates.
The good news is that Mom is concerned that if she doesn't schedule the procedure soon, she will "mess up" with Doctor T. Her words. I think Mom realizes that she has procrastinated as long as she can and must now choose to get the procedure... or not.
I am still hopeful that she will make the choice to have the pacemaker. We should have an answer by next week. Fingers crossed!
