Husband, Dad, Pops

I am feeling so thankful to my Heavenly Father tonight for allowing my Dad to still be here with us. This morning while on his regular morning walk with my mom he began having chest pains, then arm pain, & then his jaw began to hurt as well. Once home my mom called the doctor and was told to go to the ER, so off they went. 
After running several tests on his heart everything seemed to be fine but the doctor taking care of my dad still wanted to check further. The doctor had him perform a stress test which showed some irregularities. At that point he underwent an angiogram which showed his Artery almost completely closed off. 

 At this point he was taken in for a stint to allow blood to continue to flow. 


Because of the severity of the blocked artery he would have suffered a Massive Heart Attack within days if the symptoms had not presented themselves. I am so thankful that my dad listened to the spirit regarding his pain rather than just "walking it off!"

I love my dad so much and am so grateful to be his daughter. He is an amazing example of honesty, faith, courage, kindness, generosity, hope, joy, & most of all his testimony of Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.He is an amazing example of how a husband should treat his wife. He loves my mom with all his heart and respects her in every way. I want to thank my Father in Heaven for sending me to two amazing parents, I am blessed because of it.  I am so thankful that my children have him to look up to and learn from. 







I Love You Dad!
