Heart Attack...Quite a Scare!

Well, most of you know by now that my husband Robert had a heart attack Monday morning about 1:00am. He is only 41 years old so we were obviously not expecting something like this to happen. Siloam Springs Hospital sent him by ambulance to Washington Regional Hospital in Fayetteville and Dr. Pruitt was waiting there in the Cath Lab for him. His Right Coronary Artery was 100% blocked. From the time the first picture was taken until the Dr. broke thru the blocked artery was only 13 mins. I am a firm believer in getting someone to the hospital and getting treatment within that first golden hour. I know the Lord was watching out for us and knew that myself and the kids needed Robert here with us even though we know that there is a better place waiting for us in Heaven. We have alot of changes going on in our family now, good ones of course, as far as eating habits and exercise. We should have started this a long time ago, but we have now and hopefully he will see big changes in his health as well as mine. I also wanted to say that Siloam Hospital and Washington Regional personel were very good to us and were on top of things and didn't mess around. I am grateful to still have my husband and we love you very much Robert!
