We got a call from Ron's sister this evening. His dad had a CT scan last week. He has been having chest pain when he exerts himself, even with the oxygen. Well, apparently as of late, exertion comes from merely dressing himself. The cardiologist called today to give him the results of the scan. He scheduled an appointment with him tomorrow at 12:45. The doctor told him to come prepared to enter the hospital. The two arteries he had rerouted a few months ago are 100% blocked. He barely survived the surgery then. I can't imagine what they are going to be able to do for him now. He said he can't go on the way he is now. But if he goes on the table, the likelihood is that he will not survive. And if he does, it will probably be a similar scenario. I don't even know how to describe what I am feeling right now. Panic isn't quite accurate, but somewhere between there and really concerned. I love Ron's dad. The kids adore him. I guess I'm just really scared that we are getting close to losing him this time.
