Last week I mentioned B.J.’s upcoming surgery. All went well with a new defibrillator and pacemaker implanted along with new batteries good for 10 years. Maine Medical could not have been more professional and kind. We were in the new tower called The Malone Family Tower. Boy, that must be one wealthy family!
