Next, we landed in Pahrump, Nevada, and then this happened.....
For those of you who may have noticed our lack of participation/activity on facebook the last few days, here is an update. While this was definitely not on our list of things to do on our travels.... Early Tuesday morning Bruce experienced chest and arm pain that was not relieved with nitro. 911 was called and he was transported from the campground in Pahrump to the hospital in town. As they had no cardiac cath lab there and he was on a nitro drip, he was then transported... by helicopter to a hospital in Vegas. Wednesday morning he had a stent inserted and some ballooning of another artery done. He was released from the hospital this evening and we are currently at Suncoast hotel for the night. Tomorrow if he feels up to it we will make the hour and a half drive back to our camper in Pahrump to recuperate for the next week or so. Happy to say he is doing good, hasn't lost his sense of humor, and is talking of continuing our travels when he is feeling better (we'll see).
