On Thursday night, Eric had a heart attack. He has been under a tremendous amount of stress lately and the Doctor's believe that that was the cause. He is in the Cardiac Critical Care Unit of the Hospital and is doing better. He had an echo-cardiogram this morning and it doesn't look like there was any damage to the heart. He is scheduled for an angiogram first thing tomorrow morning and if all goes well with that test, he should be home on Tuesday or Wednesday.


I have been approving Members to the Group but do no have access to the alphabet files as I live in New Mexico and he is in Texas. He took his laptop to the hospital with him and uploaded the letter late on Friday and got caught by one of the nurses. They immediately took his laptop away from him!!!!!!

He told me just a few minutes ago that he will let you all know how he is doing as soon as he is released from the hospital.

Should you wish to contact him, his e-mail address is griffincreations@yahoo.com.

Please keep him in your prayers in this time of need.

Thank you,

Barbara

Eric needs to take a rest. Getting letters out should be the lowest priority right now. Getting better is Number 1 priority.
Will pray for his swift and full recovery.

Barbara - thank you for the update. I was so saddened to read of Eric's heart attack but then relieved to learn that he is being cared for and the prospect of going home soon is good news.
Please let him know that I'm sending a Huge Aussie Hug and thoughts of complete recovery, although these might be a tad icy this morning since the South Pole has decided to dump its extra ice and wintry weather on this little area of south-eastern South Australia.
