Thanks to everybody for your notes and best wishes. It cheered me up to get support from the group. I've been released from the hospital here in Pretoria, South Africa where I was medivaced. I'm still under treatment and am being kept here for another 10 days. Its overwhelming and still a bit surprising dealing with a heart issue with doctors trying to figure out why a young, healthy person has this problem (their words not mine).
When I was given ten minutes to pack a some things upon being sent to South Africa for hospitalization, the nurse accompanying me was a bit baffled as to why I insisted on bringing a camera, but I figure everyone from our group would understand. I took this self portrait hanging out in my room this afternoon after I was released and hopefully will be out soon to take pictures of something other than myself.
Thanks again for your thoughts and I'll keep you updated.–Mike
