Chelsea I am happy your husband is okay. Something like that is so scary. I appreciate all the information. We aren't in TV yet (house still has to sell) but when we get there we need to know the best place to to go for a heart attack or stroke. Dewey has a heart condition and so we do try and make sure we are clued in to the best place to go. Once again, TOTV has proven how valuable it is. In addition to being soooo much fun!

Chels, I been through all that with my husband. Leesburg is where you want to be for heart
attack/stroke. The cath lab at TVRH is superb, but if I were having a heart attack, I go to Leesburg.

For the new Villages neighborhoods just north of 466A, the distance to Leesburg Regional Medical Center is 8 miles...

Chels, so glad the vetman is okay! He really is a sweet guy even if he can't drive worth beans. Also, thank you for the head's up on the hospital info.

I wonder if those of us who live near TVRMC would have the option of being taken to Leesburg? I could walk to TVRMC but would rather be where I'd have the best chance of survival if it ever came up. (Course, I am heartless -- just ask Jess when she's mad at me. )
