I'm sorry luna. I'll add his family to my prayer list.
My dad saw a pulmonologist on Thursday and his lungs are fine, which is good. (Especially since he started smoking at age 9 was a 3 pack a day smoker as an adult).
He had his cardiac catheterization yesterday. One of the stents that they had put in back in 1990 or 1991 had collapsed so they replaced that one. They found a new blockage in an anterior artery and cleared that one and put a new stent in. They want to evaluate him in 3 months for a pace maker because of his hypertrophic cardiomyopathy since it can lead to irregular heartbeats.
His original cardiologist back in the late 80s/early 90s was a pioneer in his field and was one of the first doing the stents. They are just finding out now how long those first stents last! I was off on the number of years since his heart attack. It was in 1988 so that would be 24 years. Time flies!
