somebody pray for us please?

dad had a heart attack today. probably.

he was taken to hospital in an ambulance because of chest pain that extended into his jaw, apparantly just like the one he had in the states back in 96. the ambo insists it was a heart attack, dad insists it was not a heart attack but "just a little chest pain" and hes in hospital now, being kept overnight, and having an angeogram (sp?) tomorrow.

isnt it great when parents start falling apart?

he was supposed to be having surgery on his shoulder on wednesday, but i imagine thats not going to happen now.


i got a text from his wife at around midday, saying he was having a heart attack and being taken to hospital, but hed been given medication and was in an ambulance. she called me a bit after than to let me know what was happening, but my phone was almost out of battery, and i think she was in the hospital, so i could hardly hear what she was saying. i did find out that he was ok though.

hubby called her when he got home at about 3:30, cause i was a bit.. distressed, and she told him that he'd had blood tests and x-rays, and he thinks she said an EKG, hed been seen by the normal doctor and they were just waiting on his cardiologist to find out if he'd actually had a heart attack. but he was fine, and insists it wasnt a heart attack, and he wants to go home, and NO the hospital is keeping him til tomorrow SO THERE.

when we got home at 5:30 after picking up hubby's phone from work, there was a message on the machine from my sister saying hes having an angeoram (sp?) tomorrow, and shes going to go see him tonight, do i want to go?

YES. she should be here in 20minutes or something.

please pray for us. i need to be calm and accept that things are not as bad as my brain is imagining, and he needs to accept that he might actually have had a heart attack. and peace for everyone in the family. ive been praying like mad, but its not very coherent at the moment.
