I just got home from my parents house with some bad news.
My dad had another Doc appt today for a stress test and an echocardiogram. The results are he has to have another stent put in possibly 2. They are waiting for Akron General (Hospital) to call and give him the time to come up. It will be within 48 hours
Dad had a heart attack in January of '08 and it was assumed that he had 2 other ones in December of '07. In Jan he had 3 stents put in and they docs were hoping that would work as he had 90% blockage in 2 arteries. He followed through with his 3 mos of cardio therapy, very strict heart healthy diet, ect. followed 100% of his cardiologists orders. But apperently that didn't do the trick. My Mom didn't want to talk about it in front of Dad to not upset him anymore, so I only know very few details, but I have a feeling there is more than I have been told
Dad is only allowed to sit in a recliner with his feet up, no solids, take vitals every 30 minutes and only to be up to use restroom until they call requesting him to head to the hospital.
So please, if anyone could spare my Dad some prayers and positive thoughts it would be very much appreciated by my family and I.
My Daddy is my world, I am the biggest Daddy's girl I know
The thought of him going through more heart related surgery scares me to death, he had complications last time
