Katie & I went to bed last night. About 2-3 minutes after my head hits the pillow, I am usually asleep.
I knew Schmitty & Rachel were talking and having a "father / daughter" moment.
Rachel was concerned about how her father looked and began to ask him questions and plugging in his responses on the internet. (Remember, Katie & I were fast asleep in bed while this was happening.) In any event, that is when Rachel realized her father was having a heart attack and rushed him out the door in his PJs to our local hospital.
Rachel was driving very quickly to Lock Haven Hospital and, Schmitty, with his usual sense of humor said, "Rachel, slow down! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?"
When at the hospital, they gave him several medications and morphine to dull the pain. He was life flighted to Danville hospital ... heart attack.
Rachel called home from ER. I groggily answered the phone, learned what was happening, got Katie up, got dressed, and made a few phone calls (my big brother, the church, Lock Haven Hospital Extended Care Unit, etc. & let them know what was happening.)
Geisinger, in Danville, is over an hour away. We got there much sooner than that as Rachel must have given Katie's car wings. We did not get home until around 4:00 AM.
He'll have a heart cath at noon today.
If possible and if you think of it, could you keep him in prayer?
Thanks
