Prayers needed-cjpoppin (Jim)

[Dee4j]

Hi everyone,

Carol sent me an e-mail last night and asked me to pass this along


[COLOR="Blue"]I just wanted to let you know what has been going on for the last few days.....First off Jim is in the Hospital he has an irregular heart beat/atrial fibrillation and Congestive Heart Failure they have put him on Coumadin ( to thin his blood ) and because this med does not work well with his diabetic oral med he now is having to use insulin to control his blood sugars.  Now for some good news they feel they have caught it early enough and if he does everything he is suppose to do he'll make it for another 20 years give or take.  First and foremost he must lose weight no surprise here.........It will take the doctors a few months to get him stable so our trip to Smithwood is a NO GO.......We are hoping we'll make the Sept. beach trips and the Halloween camp-out for sure.
The most important thing is to get him better so remember so add him to your prayers! [/COLOR]


you are in or prayers, and Carol if you need anything I'm a phone call away
Jim get better soon

Love you guys

Aww, I'm so sorry to hear this you two!  You had such big plans for the summer!

Jim, hard as it seems, do what the doctors tell you and you'll be full of spit and vinegar in no time.

Carol, hang in there, and know that if you need anything just holler.  ALL of us will be praying for both of you!

God bless you two!

Thank-you everyone for your well wishes about Jim he is still in the hospital his heart just keeps jumping around and doesn't seem to stay settled down.  I was supposed to get him tonight but when I got there they had him all hooked up again and he gets to stay. His heart is only working at 28 o/o... the heart specialist keeps telling me if he gets his weight down and follows all the rules he'll still be able to have a good life......If not then he's looking at a STROKE.
This news has him pretty scared so I think he'll be good......
Somebody take Wayne up on his bet because we are not able to go to Smithwoods for sure.......Maybe next year...I'm not taking any chances on his health After almost 40 years together I've gotten used to having him in my life.  Well Happy 4th to everyone and enjoy the Fireworks maybe I'll go out in the back yard and watch them from the fairgrounds and our local park....
Love to All and Thanks again for your good wishes.....Carol
