Grandpa Bob

I think all of us were worried about Grandpa last week when RC was so sick. We all know that his health is very bad. Well our fears were realized. He is in the hospital with chest pain. It doesn't look like it is a heart attack. They are running more tests and I'll post here as soon as we know anything.

Keep praying.....

Update....2:06. They are admitting Grandpa. He will be having a procedure in the heart Cath Lab. Not sure when. I'll post more when I know.

Update 4:47....Still waiting for the Angiogram. If it is a new blockage another stint will be put in. If it is more scar tissue at the site of the previous stint, then Grandpa has to decide if he wants to attempt bipass surgery. The doctor said that it might not be technically possible to do bipass surgery. The diameter of the artery could be too small. If that is the case, Dr. Chambers will do his best to open it back up. Grandpa is very nervous, as you can imagine. He doesn't want surgery, but the doctor said that if it is possible to do it, then it would be his best option.
