Front Row Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) I believe ; so I ask for this with sincere hope. My Dad went in last week for a stent, he is 66. Turns out the blockages were to great and to close to the aorta to stent. So now he will be going in for a triple bypass within the next few weeks. He lives on the west coast and I'm on the east, so it is very hard not being near him now. For myself, I had an x ray done yesterday, doc called today to tell me it showed a questionable nodule in my lung ,and after consulting the pulmo we will have to address it. While I don't want to jump to conclusions, I do have a history of issues with asthma and was a smoker in the past, so naturally I fear the worst. TIA.

Perchoutofwater Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Prayers sent. I hope everything goes well for both of you. While scary sounding bypass isn't nearly as bad as it sounds. My dad had a quadruple bypass about 15 years ago. My uncle had a triple about 10 years ago. I know technology has improved a lot since then. Good luck.

Scooby Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 St. Francis prayer I will recite for you and Dad: Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved, as to love; for it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life. Amen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
