Prayer request
Saturday, June 7, 2008 by rustysam | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
My 36-year-old son, Chris needs prayer this morning. He was transported by helicopter to Mercy Hospital in Pittsburh, Pa. At first they couldn't find any blood pressure. It is probably a heart attack, but unknown at this time. My daughter-in-law says it does not look good. He has 2 children ages 8 and 14. Please pray for him. Thank you.

Thanks to all for your prayers and good wishes. I am very happy to report that my son is resting comfortably in the intensive care Unit of Mercy Hospital in Pittsburgh. i found out a little while ago, that he had gone into cardiac arrest while still at home and the ambulance crew used a defibrillater on him to bring him back to life. the doctor at the hospital said after a person goes into arrest they have a main window of 90 minutes to get a stent in the heart to keep them alive. the procedure was performed within 87 minutes of his cardiac arrest. The blockage was in his aorta valve. i give praise to God and all of you for your prayers..what a wonderful community this is..btw he will be in intensive care for about 4 days...thanks again...May God Bless All Of You.

I am pleased to report that my wife and I visited my son in the hospital today. He is feeling fine and looks great. The doctor said there is absolutely no heart damage and no surgery is required. The reason that no heart damage occurred is because the stent was put in his heart in a timely fashion...No surgery is required since no other blockages occurred. He has to have a few weeks of therapy and is on a cardiac diet and no more smoking. He will be off work for 9 weeks. He wants to come home tomorrow, but of course that is not going to happen. He wants to be home to be back with his family and his computer...don't we all miss our computer when we are in the hospital? I know i did when i had my heart surgery in September of last year...Thanks to all for your prayers...they have meant so much to my family...yesterday was so gloomy and today I am the happiest father in the world.. Yesterday it just broke my heart to watch the Lifeflight helicopter taking my son away and not knowing if I would ever see him again....Praise Jesus for all of you wonderful people and your prayers. There is so much power in prayer.
