Well saturday night my dad was havin some bad heartburn. no one thinks anything of it. 12 am sunday my dad goes to the ER and they give him some meds for the pain and acid. he does have acid reflux disease after all. he gets up in the mornin and the meds havent helped. he has an appt some time in the afternoon . he goes and while hes there his heart beats per min. drops to 32. they give him diff meds and send him home. he goes back to the dr today and they tell my mom that he has had a heart attack somewhere between his last appt and this one. they put him in ICU and find out that his heart was dmged durring this heart attack. so they move him to a new hospital where they can get a better look at what happend.

this has been one hell of crappy year

His heart rate dropped and they didn't check it out?!!

I hope all goes well for you and your family. Hang in there and try not to tie yourself too badly in knots, OK?

Nice to know he's better now...

...hope things will improve more in no time.

I feel your pain Taco during those first moments. My heart bled seeing my father in pain after his appendix burst and right after the operation.
