I will put your family in my prayers for a good and speedy recovery for you beloved husband. I know a lady that has a pacemaker and she is doing pretty well.

The support group “Mended Hearts” really helped my father in law following his heart attack and bypass. You and your husband might see about contacting them.

May God give wisdom to the docs and all others giving your husband care. May you be strengthened in the knowledge that no one is out of Gods’ view .May this dire situation draw both of you closer to the Lord and Saviour. May God grant both of you good health and longevity.

Prayers for your husband to make a good recovery.

Hopefully some encouragement: My first heart attack was in 1990 when I was just a few days short of being 40 years old, 35 years ago. I don’t smoke, I don’t drink, and I don’t take drugs. They didn’t believe me until the bloodwork came back. Plus, I had another one in 1997. I have 11 stents, but I’ve never had a bypass operation. Hang in there.

I’ve had a pacemaker/defibrillator since 2006 and I’ve been shocked a few times. I won’t lie, it hurts like hell, but it might save his life. If it goes off, take him to the hospital; don’t take no for an answer. The device stores data before and after a shock, so they can read that data for a better picture of what happened. The devices have to be changed out every few years because the batteries run down but that only takes an hour or so in the Cath lab.

If your husband is a veteran, sign him up for VA care. They’ll pay for everything, and any implant devices will be first rate. The copay for a $100,000 pacemaker/defibrillator is $0.00.

God bless and good luck.

Prayers for your husband. Talk to your husband’s doctor’s, pharmaceutical companies etc. It can be a lot of work but if you’re honest and upfront, you’ll be surprised as many have programs for low income folks to obtain their products or grants via the hospital for grants to purchase drugs, equipment etc. Best of luck.
