Friends all.
I respectfully ask if you would add the following to your prayers.
Last weekend my best friend Joel, who is as close to a twin brother I have in this world, had a heart attack and needed three stints to get him going again. He's home and doing well. Gave me a pretty good scare but not half as much as he was. Keep him in your prayers as he recovers. He posts here as Guhn.
However, on Friday, I get a call from my Uncle who wanted to talk to me at home. This is pretty unusual and I didn't know quite what to make of it.
When he arrived, he let me know that my father is in the hospital in a very serious condition. He went in with chronic fatigue and shortness of breath. When the tests were done determining it was blockages in his heart and set him up for a cathaterization and stints. However the doctor preforming the procedure came out within a few minutes and stated that there was no way this procedure was going to work. The doctor stopped counting the clogged arteries at 8, yes 8 and scheduled open heart surgery for first thing Monday morning. They would not let my father go from the hospital nor transfer him to another facility due to the sheer number of blockages all ranging from 80-95% blocked, including the main artery at 95%.
I can tell that both my father and mother are quite scared at this point, due to the severity of the situation. They both could use any prayers on their behalf to Father God.
I too could use your prayers too, as the relationship between us has been strained for a number of years. ( which is a polite understatement ) I could really use a lot of things right now, but wisdom is probably chief among the list.
There is a lot more I would like to add, but simply don't have the ability to articulate the many things I have to think on right now.
Thank you.
Todd
