God is Good!! and answers prayer!! The cardiologist ordered the arteriogram for today because of his abnormal tests last week. The echocardiogram showed function problems and the stress test showed blockage. Today before he went in he told us what kind of stent he was going to use so we could get on with the cancer surgery. He was only in the procedure room about 20 minutes and the dr. came out and told me that his heart is great; no problems at all. No stent and the function is good. I am ecstatic. We came home two hours later. Just amazing. Now the surgery will be scheduled with no more waiting. I appreciate each one of you for your encouragement, kind words and prayers. That has got us through thus far. I will let you know how he does with the cancer surgery. He had to stop his biologic so his pain level is high. This crazy OK weather doesn't help any of us. Hugs and Blessings. Joyce

Joyce, I'm so glad to hear this. One less thing for the two of you to worry about means more energy to deal with the cancer.
Please give each other a huge hug for me. And celebrate!!
Love,
Kat
