This One's for Larry

Happy weekend to everyone,

As I mentioned in my last blog, today my husband Larry had an appointment with his cardiologist. Larry has had a pacemaker since 2003, and recently had a stress test. The test came back "abnormal," so today's appointment was to find out what that was all about.

Larry has a blockage in one of the three arteries in his heart. Thank God they found it! So the plan is to do an angioplasty to open up the artery, then implant a stent to keep the artery open. This will be an overnight stay in the hospital, and the doctor says it is a rather routine procedure. While every medical procedure has risks, the doctor feels that Larry will be just fine. THANK YOU, LORD!!! Our appointment for the stent procedure is January 26, just a couple of weeks from now. It will be done at our second home these days, Troy Beaumont.

We would sure appreciate your prayers as we head into this procedure. Again, the doctor was very reassuring, and Larry seems to have no worries at all about having this problem fixed. And again, we are just both so grateful that the problem was detected before a "major cardiac event" occurred.

As for me, I am having a pretty good day today. Not much pain, still very tired and sluggish, and of course, still very scared. But our health, both Larry's and mine, rests in the Lord's hands, and we just have to give it all over to Him.

Thank you ALL so much for your continued prayers and thoughts! Believe me when I say over and over, that they are working, and we are so appreciative of all of you!

Love, Deb 33333333333
