Getting our lives back on track

Just about four weeks ago, while the hubs was preparing to go to work, he collapsed and fell to the kitchen floor.  Two ambulances arrived, paramedics, trip to local hospital, many tests, more tests and finally a trip to Maine Medical Center filled out the day.  The following Tuesday his aortic valve and ascending aorta were replaced.  The next Friday they implanted a pacemaker.  Needless to say, since that day, we have been visited by medical people who have kept up testing and trying to get all the numbers right.  He is really on the mend now, seemed to have turned a corner last Tuesday and got more energy and more interest in doing things.  Wednesday last we went back to the surgeon for a post-op and he was deemed to be fine and we went to dinner at David's 388 www.davids388.com   on Cottage Road in South Portland to celebrate.  We started out with Baby iceberg wedges with Maine cluster tomato and crispy bacon with blue cheese dressing.   Paul ordered Ginger and scallion crusted salmon with wasabi mashed potato and sesame snow peas and asparagus and I had special of the night consisting of haddock topped with lobster on mashed with a fabulous flavored cream sauce.  A bottle of Malbec and a shared decadent dessert and we were very happy people.  I highly recommend this restaurant.  The mains are $14, starters are $8 and salads $10.  The food is superb and the service is impeccable.  Well done Davids.
