Hi friends!

Well tomorrow is the big day. We are off to see the cardiologist at 8 am for the "procedure". When Mike had his treadmill test last month they discovered a restriction of blood flow in the lower arterial. So we have to go in and have another heart catheter done to find out what is causing this. They said if they need to stint him again they will do it while they are checking things out. Please keep us in your prayers. The procedure doesn't take that long so we should know some thing by 9 am. The thing that takes the longest is keeping your legs flat and straight for 4-6 hours so the blood will clot at the site where they go in so you can get up and walk around. He is still on all the meds he was sent home from the hospital on including one that helps heart arrhythmia so we shouldn't be doing any of that going into v-fib tomorrow. Don't worry about me...my mom is going to be with me so I won't be alone. Thank the Lord for her :) I keep telling myself that it will all be fine because if the Lord wanted to take him then he would have done it in April. We have work to do!
I will keep you posted! Thanks for your thoughts and prayers!

Absolutely. You are both in our prayers. Chad and I were talking about you two at dinner tonight and we are thinking of you. Give Mike a hug from us and tell him we love him and everything will be okay. Let me know what you find out!

Toni, you know what I told you yesterday or today...so I'm not going to repeat myself. But please make sure you call me and tell me what's going on.

Thinking of you; gosh, I had forgotten he had to have this done - SORRY!!!! I shouldn't forget; but I just prayed for both of you. Hope it went well; anxious to hear.

BIG Hugs,
