Wednesday, May 6, 2009 | A General Update story

Hey everybody!!

Sorry , we are still having trouble with our computer .. still saying it's locked up, but by some chance it opened Internet tonight.HUH???

Thursday evening Frankie came home from work, we ate supper, he went outside to piddle, in a few minutes he came in and I was on the phone with my sister... he took some rolaids and went and sit down in his recliner... in a few minutes, he got up and started to the kitchen where I was at, I noticed that he just didn't look right, so I asked him, and he said he was hurting in his chest and left arm.

Called my brother in law,Frankie couldn't hardly walk.. we got him to our ER, they called Meridian hospital, ( better qualified for this stuff) they told them what to do, give him a shot of blood thinner and some morphine and get him  there as soon as possible.... IF they had not called Meridian first and got instructions, Frankie woudn't have made it to Meridian.. he had a heart attack!!!!! I am still having trouble believing this all has happened. 95% blocked, they put a stint in, no damage was done.. Praise the Lord. He was in intensive care until Sunday,so you all can only imagine what a time I had trying to live in the waiting room there at the hospital,,,fibro, athritis, it was a complete nightmare..... we got moved to a room Sunday, and got to come home Monday. He is doing really good....I am still so tired from it all.. BUT FEELING VERY BLESSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still cannot believe this all happened. It seems like a dream and I am gonna wake up.

This is my 4th day battling a migraine. No doubt what triggered this one HUH!!

Bad news... Frankie cannot work for we know for sure 4 weeks, probably 6 weeks, he has a little short term disability , which will pay him a little over 100.00 a week, don't misunderstand me, That's better than nothing.. but not nearly enough. So now the financial worrying has set in...BUT I know GOD will see us though this ordeal. He spared Frankie's life, so he has more plans for him here on earth.

I hope everybody has been doing o.k... I have sure misssed talking to all of you.

I am holding my breath that this internet page just don't go away before I can send this.

Please pray for Frankie, me and my family and our upcoming days. Prayers went up everywhere when this first happened to Frankie, so I know God was listening and HE still is. Thanks in advance.

All of you please take care and I will try to get back as soon as I can, Frankie has a friend that works with him that works on computers , so we are hoping he can get to ours this week.

God Bless All of you.. I miss you and I love you all!!!!         Lori

    Okay, now I know what happened to Frankie!!! So nix that question in your latest journal. Tell him to take it easy and do EXACTLY as the doctor says.
    Hugs love and prayers to all of you,
