Hi Everyone!
THE GOOD NEWS: Thank you for all the kind sympathies while I was being treated in the hospital. While watching the Auburn/LSU college football game last weekend, I felt tightness in my chest and was rushed to a local hospital. Long story short, I had an arteriogram done and the tightness in my chest was caused from my heart muscle pushing on an artery which weakened it. The doc said I have always had this condition, and gave me some medication to help open up the artery for blood to flow normally. He said in due time the artery will get healthy again and the heart muscle won't have to work as hard as long as I take the medication and nature will heal itself. I did not have to have a stent thank goodness. The doc told me it was ok to walk around but not lift anything heavier than 10 lbs.
THE BAD NEWS: Anyway, I got home yesterday from the hospital and learned that one of my cats (his name was Denver) had run off and my wife said she hadn't seen him since I was in the hospital. We tried looking for him all day yesterday then I got up early this morning and found him in the woods in back of our house. He apparently got attacked by a wild animal and a portion of his hind quarters were ripped apart. Unfortunately he died while I was in the hospital I assume. I just buried him a few moments ago in the backyard. My wife and I have been in tears all day because we loved this cat dearly. We have had him about ten years and was a part of our family. With me being in the hospital doesn't seem important to me as the death of our cat Denver. Please pray for us that we will get through this tragic event. We own two other cats that we have had for many years and thank God they are doing fine.
I think the whole world of each and everyone of you folks and I am so glad to have you all as great friends on this forum
God Bless you all!
