ANSWERED PRAYERS!!

Good Morning~
Thank you all so very much for all your kind thoughts and prayers! You all helped me get through having my heart catherization procedure done with flying colors! I was awed at how unnervous I really was during the whole procedure! My hubby said that he could see a calmness that I had about me before hand and during and after the cath procedure too...

Here's my story...

My hubby and I left to go to the Heart Hospital at 6:15am, as I was scheduled to be there by 7am. On our way there, we passed by a church that had an outside sign that said, ~GOD IS WAITING~. I thought to myself, I just know that is a sign to me from God letting me know that all was definately going to be alright and that I was in HIS most perfect hands! I was totally calm about my car ride to the hospital, the prepping work before the catherization, and the waiting time for me to go into the surgery room. I just couldn't believe that I wasn't totally scared on everything that was being done to me.. I am one who tries their best not to be afraid, or tries not to show it to anyone, but, there are those times when nothing seems to work!

When I was getting admitted to the hospital, a real good friend and RN colleague of my daughter's was there to be with me during this time. Nesse is such a thoughtful and caring lady and has such a beautiful loving heart! She said she wanted to be there with me before and after my procedure since she knew that Michele wasn't able to.. being Michele's doing her traveling nursing job in California now. Thank you sooo much Nesse for being there with me!! Nesse helped me by letting me know what to expect and all, since she's had this done also. She told me they didn't have to put any stints in her's and I laid there on my bed and thought to myself, that would be so wonderful if I didn't have to have any put in either! And then.... after my procedure was over and done with.... Thank You Lord Jesus for prayers answered!!

My catherization was scheduled for 9am, and I was back out by 10am. My Dr. said that I have 70% blockage on my right coronary, and 15% blockage on my left anterial desending ventricle... He said that he wasn't going to put any stints in and that he felt that it could be fixed with med's at this point. So, off to my hopsital room we went. I then was allowed to have something to eat.. Needless to say.. I was soooo famished!! The nurses had me keep my right leg real still for awhile and then after a couple hours, they had me walk around the nurses station and then I was allowed to go home! I was so happy! Needless to say, so was my hubby!

I have been taking it easy, like they recommended for these past two days that I've been home. I feel soo much better since having this catherizatiion done. The tightness in my chest has gone... It's like one having a new lease in life! A real wake up call for me!

I just want you all to know how very thankful I am for each one of you, and for all your loving, caring hearts and beautiful prayers that you said for me, before, during and after my procedure! Thank you all so very much!! You all are the best!!

Thank you so very much Michele, Jamie, Daniel, and Hubby, for your love, caring and prayers!! I am so very blessed indeed!!



Everyone have a beautiful day!

Blessings,
