Driving home from hospital
I'm back
home after a heart valve replacement. The procedure was successful but
I'm still feeling a little weak.
I was very impressed by the Kaplan Hospital from all aspects and want to thank all the staff. I especially want to thank Dr Dani Haberman, not only for his professionalism but also for the special care.
My children, Vered, Aviv and Moran, were wonderful. To, at and from hospital I was not left alone even for a minute and their help was exceptional.
And Doreen. What did I do to deserve such a loving and caring wife? I don't think I could have got through everything so well without her constant caring and attention. I do not usually quote the bible but in The Book of Proverbs, written as a tribute to female strength, capability and wisdom we read "A woman of valor who can find? For her price is far above rubies". Well, I have found her. And not only rubies - gold, diamonds, platinum too.
