My father-in-law, after going through an angiogram and having a stint put in his heart to take care of a blockage of 70% is now home from the hospital and getting around better each day. He came home on Thursday and tonight we had them over for supper. I am really glad that I can help them out because they have done so much for us.
God has been so good in this whole situation. First, allowing him to have the problems with his blood pressure and heart rate so that the doctors could find the tumor. Then, as I thought about it the other day, keeping him safe throughout the long snowy winter when he cleared their snow, great-grandma's snow, and often our snow as well as the snow for the older couple across the street because that neighbor had a blockage and couldn't do that. That realization just blows my mind. My father-in-law didn't know he had a blockage and was doing all that work that could have led to a heart attack and yet God protected him through it all. WOW!!!!
