Well after the doctors put all of the info together they found that grandpa had been having a moderate heart attack since Saturday! So they scheduled him at the Cath Lab to see what damage had been done and to have stints put in at 5:00 yesterday. The dr expected to get in there and find that his previous bypass had given out since they only last about 10 yrs. but, he said they looked like they had just been put in the day before. He did find that one of the arteries on the back side of the heart was 99% closed! So he had to put 2 stints in it to get it open, it will take about 6 months before they'll know if its permanent. In the meantime Gale is gonna have to slow down and act his age. He is 73 but is more physically active than most half his age so it'll be a hard thing for him. We are grateful that they got him to the hospital and that he's gonna recover and be with us awhile longer.
