Hello Cuties,



We just got home and I can't stop crying. Everything is good.


Before the cardiologist took DH in,I asked if he was going to talk to us afterwards, as we needed some answers.


All the test came back abnormal and so I asked what did the nuclear test show? He said it showed that one part of the heart was not getting the blood flow it should, but he would find out exactly when he went in.


I had my friends Trudy and Rob and my 3 kids with me when the doctor came out to speak to us. He looked shocked as we were when he said, Good news Guys, No blockages. He said test are not perfect. He really was expecting a blockage.


I believe that prayers have been heard and answers. I thank God this is His will, too. There is no other explanation. The Ekg's were done at different places, different machines. The nuclear test done at the hospital took pictures of the heart. Everything showed something to be wrong.


Last night I was writing to someone,about how I learned to pray God's will the hard way. When Isabella our grand daughter, wasn't getting any better no matter how much we prayed for her to, I finally gave in and prayed the Lord's prayer, for His will,not mine. She died not long after and I had peace, as well as her.


I didn't know what God's will was for my husband, but I found that same peace again, last night. Whatever was to be, I knew it would be okay.


We prayed right then and thanked God for answering our prayers/pleas to make him well again. I have just got home and fallen apart after such a stressful time


Marsha asked if the steroids (he had just started a pack for gout) could have brought on the initial chest pains? Dr said 'Who knows', but the heart's a muscle and can have spasms.


We may never find a scientific explanation, but I know the Great Physician has performed His work and I am so very thankful.


Even Ashley remarked how shocked the doctor looked to tell us this good news.I wanted to share with all of you and thank you for all your prayers, love and support through all of this scary time. In Christian love-Toogie

I want to say a big thank you to each and every Cutie, for all your prayers, support and encouragement. I have felt your love through all of this and we have been celebrating on Cloud 9-lol- We have received more hugs, calls, even food and fresh vegetables, etc. from people we know here at home. Everyone is so happy, as are we.
Our friends Trudy and Rob came the morning after with cake, a pie, bananas and fresh garden tomatoes.
Later,Trudy and I were sitting at the kitchen table. We could see Rob and my Bill standing together, at the cabinets. Rob got real embarrassed and red, but we heard him tell my Bill that he really was worried about him and SO glad everything's alright. Bill choked up and said something we couldn't hear. Trudy and I just looked at each other like, that's our men.
Just to let you know, Rob is taking his 3rd round of Chemo for his cancer, so if you will, remember him and Trudy. They really are a caring, loving couple. Rob is so bright, he has a photogenic memory. He recited the whole Gettysburg address, at a memorial service Sunday, with only a spur on the moment notice. Trudy is an only child with both parents deceased. Their two children live in other states. Just to let you know them.
Again, I thank you. I wish I could give each and every one of you a tight squeeze/hug or we could all do a huge group hug!-lol-God bless you all-Toogie

I also wanted to say, we had a singing service last night and our music leaders father-in-law came and sang Come To Jesus. I love that song and I believe he has sang it better than the ones that have recorded it. It was very moving.
If you get a chance and haven't heard it before, go to You Tube and type in Come to Jesus. Chris Rice and also Hillary Scott, both have recordings there. The lyrics are so meaningful.

Respect! You had to be very brave. It's not easy to keep the
"surface" good if inside you are so worried but have to be in an officially good mood for your beloved husband to encourage him and give hope.
Wishing you and your whole family a good time to relax and throw away
the heavy burden.
So glad about your news - Maria

I too believe that prayers have been heard and answered. I will continue to pray that your husband is on the road to recovery and with the help of Our Lord he will stay on that path. Prayer is powerful.

Thank God for such good news and blessing your DH. May he continue to feel better. My husband takes black cherry seed extract tablets for his gout. Has worked very well so far and not having many flair ups.Watching diet is important for it too. No peanuts or peanut products, no butterbeans, Watch pork foods. Their are a lot of others too to be careful not to eat. So happy for the results for your DH. May you all be well.

The power of prayer, nothing like it. You've witnessed a miracle. It is amazing what happens when we put our problems in the Lords hands, after we've done everything we can do. So glad to hear the good news.

What wonderful news! Indeed an answer to prayer. I find it so difficult to remember that everything is in God's time not mine. But he reminds me frequently. Sometimes I think God puts roadblocks in front of us to remind us to slow down and focus on him. So very happy that your husband's procedure came out so wonderful. Now you can take some deep breaths, relax, and SEW! Still sending prayers.

I am so happy for you both that the tests turned out okay. Prayers really do help. You have mine.
My DH is still going through some stuff...this after 3 yrs. now. It is scary.
He is scheduled for some more tests ( a CT scan, breath, and has just had another bone marrow test ) so prayers are in order.
My thoughts and prayers are with you both.
Hugs, Nadyne

Toogie , wonderful news for you and your family. God is not ready for your husband yet. Stress can cause similar reaction. Did the Doctor think it could be stress related? Kay
