December 2017 Dad suffered his first heart attack, in which they put 5 stents in and we were all so thankful for this amazing Christmas gift. Sadly, this combined with many new medicines, he suffered another heart attack late January 2019 and they put another 5 stents in. Then, another event on July 22 leading to finding his heart was 99% clogged. He is now in the ICU waiting on next steps, dependent on medical devices to keep his heart beating, which poses its own risks with every day he's on these. All this in the midst of a pandemic, where we are unable to visit him in the hospital.  We need God's mercy and favor on our sweet Dad, and every prayer makes a different in the heavenly realms, we truly believe. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and also lift him up to our Heavenly Father during this time. Words can't express our gratitude.
