Scary Sunday
Dad called me about 3:00 this afternoon and told me he had EMS on the way. He was having some rapid heart rates along with high blood pressure. EMS checked him out and everything looked normal. I took him to the emergency room anyway. They ran blood work and an EKG. Everything looked kosher but I know that he has been feeling puny for the last week and that is one sign of heart problems. He is going to see the cardiologist Tuesday. They will put him on an events monitor and try and catch one of the episodes so they can better diagnose the problem. He had by-pass surgery about 14 years ago and this really fucking scares me. Hopefully they can nip this shit in the bud! With the 1 year anniversary of mom dying coming up next Saturday I am a nervous wreck about dad. If I lost him I would not know what to do.

Give him my best and I will keep both of you in my prayers.
It's possible with that anniversary coming up that your dad is feeling crummy on account of that as well. Just a thought.
I hope he is feeling better soon!
Peggy, after compiling all my thoughts. I think he might have had an anxiety attack today. We will go to the cardiologist none the less.
What is it about August? My Dad had his heart attack last year in August on my brother's birthday.
You and yer Pop's are in my prayers.
We'll be praying for your dad. You need to take it easy, too. The docs will get it figured out.
Sending big hugs and lots of prayers to you and your dad.
Sending good thoughts for you and your dad.
All my best to your Dad.
Thank you all for the prayers. My pops would not believe that he has people spread around this United States keeping him in their thoughts and prayers.
Also in Toronto, Kerrcarto. Praying that all goes well.For your Dad and family.
I pray everything turns out good. You and your family are in my prayers.
