So I’ve had a few people send me messages and calling, asking about my dad and how he is doing. So thank you everyone for your concern. If you haven’t heard he did have a heart attack Friday night. Luckily my mom was with him and she was able to take him to the hospital and get him taken care of. They were down in Vegas for the weekend for a work event and she took him to a hospital with some great heart surgeons. They did go in and saw he had a clogged artery but put a couple of stints in to help blood flow (I’m guessing that’s what they do-I had to take Biology twice keep in mind). He has been in the hospital since Friday night and was released late last night. They wanted to keep him for a few days to monitor everything before they released him. I’ve talked to him a couple of times and he sounds really good. Just very bored (of course-he hates not doing anything).
My mom is doing well too. She has 2 brothers, a sister-in-law and nieces and nephews down in Vegas so she has had a lot of family support come stay with her at the hospital and let her stay with them while they are down there. They should be coming home hopefully Tuesday if everything goes as planned. I will be sure to keep everyone posted of any updates but so far he sounds good. For a bad situation it seems like it was the best case scenario that they were able to clear up anything before it became more serious. Thank you everyone for your concern and prayers they have all been really helpful.
Your Mom called your Uncle Mark yesterday insistent that he go get a stress test done. We were happy to tell her we had already done this a few weeks a go.
ReplyDeleteI know none of us believed your Dad would be the first one to have this problem. I think Mark would have been at the top of everyone's list.
Soooo glad he is doing well. You know if there is anything you need I'd be there in a blink.
Love you,
Aunt Paula
