When it Rains it Pours

My step father, Bob, went to the hospital due to two hours worth of "indigestion" which turned out to be a minor heart attack. He went into surgery. Two of the bypasses were blocked. He's in ICU tonight due to his blood pressure not being at a level they were ok with. He'll probably be in the hospital for a couple days.

We found out this morning that Bob had a massive heart attack, not a minor one. However, he is doing much better today. I took off work today to spend it with my mom and Bob. We were able to see Bob a couple of times. It was definitely good for the soul to see him. He is a good guy, and I am looking forward to seeing him out of the hospital once again : ) It turns out his veins and arteries are smaller than normal. And the vein they took from his leg to do the bypass is larger than the arteries it was attached too. That was the cause of the blood clots. They put two stents in those bypasses. I'm believing that the bypasses and arteries become one as if they were made for each other. God is good, and He is a miracle worker. I won't ask how. I'll just be extremely thankful : )

Then I find out, Sonya, my sister-in-law was in an accident around 3 pm today. She and baby are fine, but still. Everyone was stopped until a truck ran into the vehicle behind her which was pushed into her vehicle which pushed her vehicle into the vehicle in front of her. The driver of the truck jumped out as soon as it happened and took off running. Sonya was taken to the hospital just to make sure all was well. She feels fine now, but the pain usually sets in the next day.

I found out today that Sonya didn't get released until 8:30 this morning. They were monitoring the baby's heartbeat. If Sonya or the baby moved, the information would be inaccurate. With that and the change of shifts, it took forever. Blake spent the night with her. They didn't really get to sleep with nurses coming in every hour and the nonstop beeping. She went to her ob appointment, but the doctor wasn't there. She has to wait until next week to find out the induction date. However, the nurses at the hospital think the reason for the induction is the amount of amniotic fluid. Sonya said it's a normal amount but on the low side of normal.

Please keep them both in prayer.
