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.:(
:hands: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:wub: The thought of him going through more heart related surgery scares me to death, he had complications last time :cry8:

He then will recieve the stents or they told him there is a possibility of open heart surgery this coming Monday, depending on what the heart cath shows:( but it is not looking good:(
Thank you everyone for your continued prayers and support, it means the world to my family and I :)
