    Just so I'm clear, I was talking about the whole procedure. I can't get the defibrillator unless the docs can get my heart to go into sudden death. Why not just give me the thing? grrrrrr

    Sorry to sound so rude, but D-Day is approaching and I'm a little worried. Especially since my insurance is about to run out and if I do need it later, I might not be able to get one.
