WOL had some tests run today. He has apparently suffered a heart attack and/or has a blockage. Please pray that the doctor's will have wisdom and discernment as they treat him. He has a terrible heart history - family history - and has gained a significant amount of weight, developed high blood pressure and possible early stages of diabetes. I know he would appreciate the prayers of his MB friends.

Rld,

Both of you are in my prayers and have been for some time.

Remember there's a God factor RLD

Acts 3:15 You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead.

When you are on the ropes and the armies of the devil are aligned against you, when your backs are up against the wall remember satan intends it for evil but God turns it around for good for His purposes.

Thanks all for your prayers and support. RLD is correct, but I am at home and feel fine. They will know more later but something has occured. Either the Heart Attack or blockage and she is right. I am almost 6'1" and have gained from 205 to 237 since Sept 05. I am a stress eater. I also have not exercised like I should. I have run Triatholans, Biathonlons, Marathons, etc... and just let myself go during a time that I should not have.

I don't blame RLD. I blame myself. I am presently trying to get a handle on it and that is how all this was discovered.

I appreciate everyones prayers. We are both going through a lot health wise and none of this (what we are going through in our marriage) helps any, but I am trying.

Thanks again.

WOL

Wow. Good to see you home so fast. Hopefully it is just a blockage, which can be fixed. Don't think they would let you go home so quick otherwise.

Me too but it was just test today. Who knows. I am not used to the high pressure, pre diabetes, heart patient thing at the ripe old age of 43. It is all new to me.

It is certianly a wake up call. They suspected something last week and the test were done this morning. I was not in the hospital other than for testing. Hopefully it is the blockage and I can have a stint put in or something like that and move forward with trying to get in better shape and take care of myself.

Thanks for the prayers.
WOL

PS RLD has called off the hearing and put off the divorce for a little while. I don't know if it due to my current health issues or she has a change of heart about trying to work on our marriage. Either way I am grateful for the extra time to show that our marriage can work.

Thanks again all.

My kid's dad had a blockage at 36, in 3 arteries - 95%. His dad died of a heart attack at 39. They did the angioplasty balloon thing, and he was fine for a few years. At that time, they didn't have the stent thing.

Then he had to have bypass surgery, and that lasted for 15 years. By the way, he continued to smoke (hope you don't) and drink, and eat lots of fat.
