So the Doctors said I was in atrial fibrillation. My heart rate was out of rhythm and all over the place. It was jumping around between 180 and 202. (normal is between 60 and 90) This is the 2nd time I have had this happen(first was 6mos ago). Gonna have to get some more tests done. They definetly think its an issue with electrical and not plumbing so that is good. I was released earlier today after only staying one night there. Last time it was 2 nights. I got home spent some time with the wife and kids, then started on the customization of my 14. I may get some handles for it later but dont have the money. So I stripped, sanded, patina-ed and wrapped it. Thanks for those of you that kept me in your thoughts and prayers. Heres Becker#2:

Glad you're okay man, take care! Your mod looks really cool, I'm kind of jealous actually. What's your patina recipe?
 
mustard and a kids watercolor paintbrush for 40-60mins (depending how dark you want it-I did 40) then soaked papertowel in apple cider vinegar and wrapped knife and let sit for 10mins. I usually do 15mins but grew impatient. Thats it!
 
glad you're home hope they get that a-fib fixed up for ya. i love that pattern on the patina nice job.
 
Glad that you are back home with a reasonable prognosis and hope of a decent outcome.....YAY......

Pretty cool work on the blade.......A little different and pleasing to boot........

Hope things work out well......

Hey outdoorsman. A-fib with rate in 200s is potentially dangerous. I hope you have a good cardiologist who puts you on appropriate beta blockers, possibly anticoagulation. Hang in there!
 
Nice work on the blade. Hope everything works out for you.
