This weekend was just too damn hectic...
My mom gets a phone call at 5:30 on Friday night and it is my dad saying that he is in the hospital. My dad had a doctor's appointment that afternoon and when he got to the doctor's he mentioned that he had been feeling light headed, dizzy, and that his heart felt like there was some fluttering going on. So the doctor did an EKG on him and sent him right to the hospital. My dad was working hard on friday and what basically happened is that his heartrate got sped up, but it wouldn't come down. His doctor used the example of working out on a treadmill and when you're done your body will slow down, including your heart, but my dad's heart wasn't slowing down. He was in the Post ICU unit of the hospital...not because he was that critical, but they were trying different medicines and doses of medicine on him, so he might become critical.
So after being in the hospital since friday night, he went an got an angiogram on his heart this morning. it was scheduled for 7am this morning and i decided that i would go with my mom even though i had school today. so i got up a little before 6am and got ready and my mom and i left. the angiogram showed that my dad has a 60% blockage in his left artery...even though i think this is a little on the high side, the doc. says that he thinks he can manage it by having my dad take medicine, diet, and exercise. So since there was nothing critical found, my dad got to come home today. it's really nice to have him home again...i'm just really thankful...cause things could have been a lot worse. i think my dad said it right when he said this was a wake-up call. : )
It was kind of funny...i had to drive my dad home from visalia, drop him and my mom off, go by and pick up my friend, and then turn around and drive back to visalia for class today...that was really fun...*sarcasm*
(sorry if some of my grammer is off...i am very, very tired.)

Btw, love the new design merc. i swear it has your name written all over it. : )
