Oh honey, I am so glad that Patrick is doing well after all that!! Poor guy!!
And girl, you must have been scared silly!!!!!!!!!
I am so proud of you, though, every single one of your notes sounded brave and determined, and your faith is winning this battle for you, my friend!!
Oh how COOL that Toto was allowed a visit while Patrick was in the hospital! That story sure touched my heart!! I could just picture everything! Too sweet.
My hubby has had to undergo three cardiac caths. I hate it every single time for the risks. I pretty much hold my breath all the while he is in there, and if I think it is taking too long, I start to freak out a little...but so far so good. Hopefully your Patrick will never have to undergo another one really soon!
AND I AM SO PROUD OF YOU FOR CHANGING YOUR EATING HABITS AND LOSING ALL THE WEIGHT!!!!!!!!!! 
You know I am a Healthy Eating Cheerleader
, so I am so excited to hear you mention healthy eating as a reason for why things were not worse than they were!!
Give my best to your "Best Friend"!! Gentle hugs, and loads of kisses to him and to you!! Way to go!!
