Journal entry by jennifer mcgraw —
It does not seem to ever stop. Randy has had a rough several weeks. On Saturday he was told by dyalsis clinic that he needed to go to the ER. He has been struggling with having too much fluid and it has been causing issues with his lungs, thankfully he agreed and i took him in. Early Sunday morning he had issues with a vtac episode. (This means his heart is trying to beat to fast) Thankfully he was at the hospital when this happened otherwise the outcome could have been much different. After running test they decided he needed a diffibutlator pacemaker that will keep his heart in a correct rhythm and help prevent anymore vtac episodes. Please pray for strength and for them to continue to get fluid off thru dyalsis and his lungs to heal. They replaced his pacemaker today and all went well. I am doing ok but have moments of being overwhelmed. This has been a hard week on the kids as they are realizing more the seriousness of what is going on. Tristyn has talked to teachers and other adults, but my girl hasn't said a word even to her best friend. Be in prayer for her to open up and communicate to someone.
