Hello all. Yesterday when I got to my boyfriend's house he told me that his uncle (who he lives next to and is more like a father to him) was not doing well..this is a relatively very healthy man who only goes to the doctor when he is very sick. Andy, my boyfriend, told me that Stringie, his uncle, was having chest pain and difficulty breathing. I went with him over to Stringie's house and as soon as I saw him I was even more concerned..he was very gray..his wife had finally talked him into going to the doctor..so we all went to the doctor..I waited in the waiting room while the 3 of them went back. about 30 minutes after they had taken him back Andy came out and said lets go they are taking him to the hospital..he just had a heart attack..apparently he had one earlier in the day..and was in the process of having another one.
We went home and made a few important phone calls then went to the hospital..where we spent the rest of the evening.
They took him for a Heart Cath, after which the doctor came and told us that he is a very lucky man and he is surprised that he is still alive. Many of his major arteries are severly blocked..and part of his heart is not working at all.
I was very happy when we were in the ICU visiting him and his nurse walked in..as it is someone who I would trust my own life with..it is my bff's brother..and I felt very relieved by that.
Anyway..if you could all please pray for Stringie because he needs A LOT of prayers right now.
