Hey Ghostfleet.....
I know today was the big day and it may be too early to tell, but how's your grandpa?? Hopefully all went well, and we'll keep him and your family in our prayers.

Well,
I was told that he is refusing to have the operation. In order to do triple bypass they have to put him asleep. But he will never allow them to put him asleep. He had an operation done one time when they put him asleep and he says that he left his body & could see them working on him. After that he wont allow it. He even had his appendix rupture & he made them numb it, but he wouldnt go out.
They found out that 2 of his main arteries are 100% blocked, one is 90% blocked & one is 40% blocked.
So he is out of the hospital & into a rehabiliation center so they can try & get him walking again. He isnt even allowed to go around in the wheelchair, because they said that even the most minor stress could set off another heart attack.
He should be walking again within the next week or so, so he should be home soon.
Thank you everyone for praying for him. He is still alive <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
BTW - 2 of the doctors said that if he had gotton the operation done, then he would probably never walk again because of the long recovery time. They think that he made the right decision, especially for his age.
I'm just a sinner saved by grace.

I'm glad to see that a lot of us were interested in your follow-up, Ghost.
Praying God has had a tremendous impact in my life and my family's well-being and I'm glad I could join in for this.
