I don't post much anymore, but I felt it worth reminding our colleagues that "follow up with your cardiologist ASAP" is not a guideline supported move nor a therapeutic intervention for someone discharged with ongoing new onset atrial flutter with RVR on a Friday afternoon.

Happy birthday to a person who makes the world more beautiful.

Walking the beach where just a few months ago our buddy was having the time of his life. Glad to share the moment together.

There are blue skies beyond this.

Happiest of birthdays, RSJ.
