    Brother in VA Hospital

    My oldest living Brother, spent this AM in the Emergency Room at Memphis VAMC. He is having heart problems and loss of blood pressure. What else I don't know. He is in the Hospital now, I am leaving in 8 minutes.

    He had one heart attack several years ago that blew out the back part of His heart. He is also a Diabetic, and don't know what else.

    I ask for Your Prayers, Light a Candle, or Whatever, He is a Great Guy. His name is Jimmy Stacks, Thanks, Bill

    WOW Didn't even know that was possible. Hope he does OK, and take care of yourself. Don't need to be in an accident rushing to the hospital.

          You will have my prayers, along with those of several hundred of our family members, to take with you, Bill!

                    Just got in, I believe they will do a pacemaker. He looks good, He's in MICU and He wont's to go home. We brought His truck, all his clothes, and his prostectic leg to his home. Going to sleep now. Bill

                      Bill,
                      Glad to hear that a pacemaker will be the only serious thing right now. My grandfather got a pacemaker a few months ago because his heart rate would be fine one minute and then drop the next. He wasn't wanting to do much of anything to help with his hip surgery recovery after he got released from the nursing home he was in for about 5 months. But now he is doing well and getting better every day.

                      My thoughts and prayers are still with you and your family for a speedy recovery.

                            You've had a long night, Bill. It sounds encouraging, and you will all remain in my prayers.
