Thank you for praying!
My dad had the angiogram this morning. They discovered a very large blockage in the main artery in front of the heart. The opening is very narrow for blood flow, so they were not at all surprised that he was not feeling well at all. The doctor talked to my mom and sister about the results and quickly scheduled the placement of the stent at 1:00 today. If this artery had become fully blocked, it would have been fatal so we are so thankful that they are taking care of it right away!
The surgery will last around 1.5 hours and he will be staying in the Heart hospital overnight tonight. There is a second artery that is 40%-50% blocked but it is a more minor artery so they are going to watch that one for now but not take any action with it at this time.

Will pray for your family. I met your Mom this week at Bible Study. Sounds like a lot has happened since then.
