my mom dialed,,or begain to dial 911 and he yelled at her to stop...i told her to continue ..not for him..but for my broken chest plate...he then laughed and asked what the hell was going on and why did we wake him???

we explained that hje had not been asleep thast he had just had a stroke or heart attack and he needed go to horsepital....well he yelled and faught us and this was about 12:10 pm..at that momnet the phone rang and it was his cardiologist...the past two days he had been doing some sort of stress testing at the imaging center,the dr l;ooked at his report and imediatly called..said get ya butt in here...at 12:30 i got a call saying that they were transporting my dad to sacramento...40 mile trip..to a sutter horsepital for congestive heart failure...his BP was 70/35 at the time

so please pray for my dad..or if ya dont pray..please wish him well...

PS i may be in horsepital monday or tuesday for a skin graft myself...not a good time for my family...
 
Sir, my prayers have been cleared to climb to flight level infinity for you & your Dad. God be with you & your family in this difficult time.
 
May Gods awesome healing and blessings be upon your Dad and yourself, David. Sorry to hear this. Sounds like he is a very strong soul.

Is your mom going up to Sacramento with him?

You have my prayers, especially after having a close call with mny Dad recently.
 
You have my prayers as well. My mom had a heart attack on the comode a few years back, and unfortunately was found there hours later. I feel for you and your family, and my hopes for you dads speedy recovery.
 
Dave, my prayers for you and your dad are on the way and will not cease... I hope things go well for you both...
 
Having had a heart attack myself, I feel for you and your family Daveroo. My prayers are with you.:wavey:

Now I want to mention one thing, after your father gets through with all this, he needs to go into cardiac rehab and after Medicare stops paying for it (3 months), continue it on your own. I have been doing it now for over three years and fell better than I felt in my 30's and 40's. My last MRI showed that my heartmuscles are a lot stronger than they were when I had my heart attack. I am not short of breath any longer, I feel great. And I give this free advice to anyone else who reads this and has had a heart attack. Go start excersizing. :running: Panther will back me up on that one.:bump:
