Thankful

I've been so emotional and so thankful for my relationship with God to be there when I cry out to him. On Monday, the 15th I got a call at work that my Dad was having chest pain and was being taken to the local ER. My Mom told me to stay at work - that she would call when they got there. I remembered that they were running an errand for me and wanted to call her back to let her know that I would take care of it, not to worry. When I called she said she felt my Dad was worse than he had let on and that I should come. At the ER his blood enzymes were elevated so they admitted him and scheduled a stress test that was cancelled and a cath that was done the next day. The cath revealed 5 blockages. Open heart surgery was done on Fri., the 19th where a triple bypass was successful. Something cool - Evan's surgeon trained my Dad's surgeon. You would think after all I've seen with Evan this would be cake but... it's hard to see your Dad on the vent, restrained and confused. He is doing awesome - in true Dad fashion he went out to pick flowers yesterday - 6 days post op. He is driving my Mom crazy - my brother and I too. But, we wouldn't want it any other way.
Say a prayer for me and this weekend - after reading some of Kathy's post I don't think it's so bad after all.
