Everyone knows Tom, and everyone loves Tom. He is someone we all strive to be. He is the most caring, loving, kind, and giving person that has always put others first.  Especially his family, but most importantly his grandchildren. Last night he suffered a massive heart attack. Little did we know, this attack started on Saturday. It started with symptoms of indigestion and resulted in an ambulance ride to United. Upon arriving to United, they immediately placed 3 stents in one artery. The other arteries of the heart are damaged. He is now in the ICU being closely monitored by the wonderful medical staff. He is stable, verbal and his humor is very much alive. These next few days are still critical, as they need to make sure his progress remains stable.
