This is as far as I got sketching the view from the 2nd floor waiting room as the cardiologist attempted to do a heart catheter procedure on Bill. Just as I was about to take a photo of the sketchbook and view together, a nurse called me back to where Bill was.
balancing act, arm of chair |
Meanwhile, what seems to me like a bit of a miracle: the reason Bill has not had a major heart attack from this complete blockage is that, as it slowly formed, his body actually created its own bypass with a smaller vessel. Unfortunately, it is pumping blood in the wrong direction.
So we go home and continue to wait as they try to figure this thing out.
Oh dear heart! How frustrating and scary...you're both in my prayers!
ReplyDeleteReally trusting God at this point as the doctors try to figure this thing out. Trying to avoid 2nd bypass if at all possible.
DeleteThis, so we continue to pray.
ReplyDeleteYes, pray and trust God. And praise Him for those wee blood vessels trying to keep blood flowing — so thankful to avoid another massive heart attack!
DeleteGod is the master physician/surgeon. Those "wee blood vessels" - what a miracle!
DeleteI am so sorry you are experiencing this difficulty. I remember when my father had quadruple bypass surgery. The situation makes you feel pretty helpless. But trust in God. He will carry you through any situation. Prayers.
