Penny heart attack update and COVID rant:

Went with Penny for some of her post-widow maker heart attack cardiac function, scans, imaging testing and checkup today.

Penny's cardiac function hasn't improved, even after a full round of cardiac therapy, BUT it hasn't worsened. That still is good news.

COVID RANT: During this check-in, the registration clerk lady started asking the #COVID prescreening questions and halfway through, frustrated, she said "I don't know why we have to ask these covid prescreen questions now." JFC. It was obvious by looking at her she probably has been to a MAGA rally.

This was a major university medical center, one of the top notched rated cardiac centers in the nation.

It really disturbed me she was so cavalier about COVID, esp when this cardiac center sees so many vulnerable, severely heath challenged, people. #health We traveled several hours to go there.
