Kevin May God be with you on your surgery and get well quick! You are so fortunate to have found the blockage before you had any damage. We need to get your stand up on Betty's soon. Good Luck and God Bless,  Ben

thanks, guys, I'm looking forward to getting this done...it explains a lot of things about how I've been feeling lately...

I appreciate the prayers, and thanks to God that this was found before I crashed and burned somewhere in the woods.  Y'all would've had to field dress me to get me to the truck...

I'll let ya know how it turns out

Well, the saga continues....

When they did the catheter today, they found a number of blockages, from 70-90%.  Scheduled for quadruple bypass next Thursday.

I thank God that something told me to have a stress test.  There is no damage to the heart muscle, so this should make me good to go.  Be a real challenge with all the lifestyle changes, but it's also a blessing.

This is a real Trad Gang story.  I was able to meet Brad Harriman (fireman_3311) at MoJam, and we talked about his heart attack a couple of years ago.  He's a couple of years younger than me, and wears a pacemaker.  Without this "push" I probably wouldn't have gone in on my own to get this checked.

Thanks to all for the prayers and support

Kevin

Kevin...

Good thing is that you are young and can rebound with some work... Dad didn't do his exercises and ended up bent over...

Life changing event...but one that is going to open up new vistas for you. Be a transition and some soreness, but you're going to do excellent and be on here praising God's great healing!

Keep the Son in your eyes!
