I had a lunch date with a good friend (Rebecca) and we decided to include our husbands. Just as we were going to pick them up Rich received a call that a sister in our ward (Pam O'Brien) was in the hospital and needed a blessing. Since we were picking up Gerald, we just took a detour to the hospital. Pam had a heart attack on Monday and had an 8 hr ordeal just to get to her phone to call 911 when she collapsed! The EMS took her directly to the cardiovascular surgery area where they learned she had 3 blockages and put in 3 stents. However, things went south yesterday and they needed to do another stent yesterday! Since she lives alone, you can only imagine how frightening this must have been for her. Today she was able to get to call the missionaries, who in turn, contacted the bishop and then he contacted Brother Duke (hp gp leader) and he called Rich...what a glorious chain of priesthood who were able to get to her and provide the support she so desperately needed! Later tonight I went to the hospital to visit her. It has been a rough week, but I'm praying she is now on the mend!
After the hospital we headed to Abuelos for lunch. It was delicious and the company was terrific! We then headed over to Jo-Ann's so Rebecca and I could pick up a few things....Rebecca found things but I left empty handed...think I just need to finish what I've already got started!😜
We also learned that Georgia is improving from her illness - that's great news! And - we learned that Felicia isn't having an irradiated baby - that's also great news! Yesterday when Felicia took Georgia in for X-rays the tech took no precautions to protect Felicia in case of a possible pregnancy.
I also had a chance to talk with Emily and Desi. That was good too. I learned that Kathryn is having surgery to take out a tumor on her kidney. Thankfully the tumor is benign, but it will be a difficult surgery. She is in my prayers, as is Tom's Dad, Richard, and Dan's folks!
