Prayer request for my Dad
Vanity | 12/3/2014 | Eagles6

Posted on 12/03/2014 5:58:39 PM PST by Eagles6

Dad is going in to the hospital tomorrow for treatment of atrial fibrillation. They are going to try to shock his heart back into rhythm. If that doesn't work it's a pacemaker.

Dad is 87, an Army Vet, wounded in an explosion in 1946 in the Phillipines while the US was supporting the Phillipine gov't during the Huk rebellion after WW2 .

Mom and my sisters are upset.

He's the most honorable man I've ever met and he and Mom are my best friends. They've been married 64 yrs.

Prayers! Pacemakers/defibs are lifesavers, so if they have to insert one, it is a great thing!

Will do, Eagles6. Know several people, as well as a relative, who either had the shock treatment, pacemaker, or both; and everyone of them continues in good health. God bless and comfort you, your Dad, and family.

UPDATE:

Dad is home and doing well. Apparently one shock put his heart back into the correct rythym and he was soon harassing the poor nurses and techs with his corny jokes.

Though I can't thank each FReeper individually please know that your heartfelt prayers are deeply appreciated and I know they helped.

Hello... I just saw your post, and am praying for your Dad, you and your family. Trust in God and in the prayers of those around you: whatever God’s answer, know He loves you all with a love beyond our understanding. May He bless all of you!
