He's coming home!!

He's coming home today! They are going to check his blood count to make sure there is no internal bleeding and let him walk around for a bit to make sure that his heart responds appropriately and then let him leave this afternoon. I think MediCal is going to kick in to pay for his medicine and for subsequent heart caths.

As it turns out he had 4 blockages total and they could only take care of the two that were in the same artery. They have to wait until the stint is engrafted into the artery to take care of the other ones because they would have to use that artery in the process. He most likely has a month to wait and recover before they can fix the rest of his heart but we are excited at how fast he has received his treatment. Praise the Lord for such speedy hospital service!!!!

Wonderful news. Praise the Lord! I guess Joan's birthday was 'happy' in a different way! It sounds like there is going to be a lot more to come as far as treatment but we are assured that the Lord is in control.
