May 27, 200719 yr Prayers are on the way, 98. I hope he's feeling much better today! How old is your dad?
May 27, 200719 yr Been there done that four years ago..... Believe me when I say your Dad is probably more worried about how your Mom and you are handling his heart attack. I know I was more worried about my daughter and wife and how they would react (both knew that my Dad had died when I was a freshmen in HS of a heart attack and my daughter was at the time just an eight grader). Your Dad will be fine, but he will have to quit smoking if he does smoke, eat better, exercise, take life a little slower, and most importantly take his medicine daily. Trust me, he will be fine....and now maybe you can learn something about what you can start doing in your life, so it can't/won't happen to you in later in your life. How does the old saying go, like father, like son...... My prayers today will include your Dad, and good luck.....

May 27, 200719 yr Author Thanks guys for the kind words. My Dad does not smoke, but he's definitely got some weight to lose. He knows it. We've harped on him for years to eat better and everything, I hope this makes him realize we were right. I don't think this would have hit so hard, but my grandpa (my Dad's dad) dies two years ago Thursday. And he had a long history of heart disease. So it just scared us even more because of that. I'm on my way over to see him here in a bit, I'm just like him, antsy, always moving around, I know he's going crazy having to stay in bed most of the time. Thanks again guys!
May 28, 200719 yr Just noticed this thread 98. Prayers going up from the Rambler household as we speak. May God Bless.
May 28, 200719 yr Prayers to you and your family. Jesus is in control and may the Holy Spirirt guide your family to support your Dad in the next few days. Isn't it amazing how people want to pray for each other and lift each other. Folks really care about you, you are a lucky person. See if your Dad can take Protein shakes, low carb and low in sugar. Helped me until I started dunkin cookies into the shakes.
