    Very interesting surgery you had done. Very happy for you and Izzy that all went well. I've too have gone to great lengths working with experimental surgeries to save a few of my Danes that had DCM.

    What heart condition did she have that a pace maker would help her?

    Yay Izzy! Even if the hospital folks are really nice, it's always nicer at home in your own bed. Or lap.
