Several weeks ago, I posted in one of the daily threads about my dad's recent hospitalization following a mild heart attack. Since then, he has been doing well, but some cardiac tests have indicated the need for a second angioplasty, (the first one was done about 10 years ago.) He is scheduled for the procedure this Wednesday, and he hopes to be released from the hospital the following day. Please keep him in your thoughts.

Lorie! I am so sorry and understand your concern.
I have a feeling your Dad will be just fine. My husband had this done a year and 1/2 ago and his heart is the better for it. They put in some stents to keep the arteries open.
I will be pryaing for you and your dad and will be anxious to hear how he makes out!

Good thoughts and prayers from me, too. Please let us know how his surgery goes. How is your husband doing after his back surgery? I hope he's ok.

You have me confused with LDG. We do have the same first name, but she's the one whose husband has had back surgery.

My dad has had to go through the same type of surgery.
Sending a bunch of good wishes your way.
Hope it all goes smoothly and he gets much better.

Thank you for all the thoughts and prayers. The surgery was delayed for awhile this morning because of a heavy patient load. But once they got started, everything went very smoothly, and all the blockages were removed. Dad's recovering well and he's being released tomorrow! Thanks again!
