Dad's Heart Catheter, Sept 6

 Micah had to draw a self portrait at school.  it was so adorable I had to take a picture.  So far he is liking school ok.  he doesn't like the rules and feels like he should be allowed to build a tall tower if he wants:)
 On Sept 6, dad went in to have his heart catheter done.  We spent some time praying over him before the procedure.
Aunt Cheryl, Uncle Rodger, Aunt Shelia, mom and I were there.  He wasn't scared.
Aunt Sharron and Uncle Larry came a little later and were there for the report.  The doctor was smiling but said his arteries are all blocked about 75-80% and his widow-maker artery was blocked 99% and 95%  requiring two stents.  The doctor said it all with a smile and explained that at least dad did not have a heart attack and his heart was very strong.
We stayed with him most of the day.  I had to leave to pick up the kids from school.  I was so sad for dad and couldn't believe this was his situation.  We are very thankful he didn't have a heart attack but are sad for this diagnosis.
