I just got a text message from my brother that my dad had another heart attack and is currently in the hospital. I don't know anything else yet. Please pray for him (Peter). thank you!

**Update**

I don't have much of an update because I only know they admitted him to the hospital and a cardiologist still hadn't seen him last I talked to my mom late this evening. I'm hoping tomorrow will bring some answers.

Please also pray for my brother, because he is apparently having difficulty coping (because everything should be about him, so our dad being sick is especially inconvenient. Sorry, but I'm so frustrated with him right now!)

It's hard that I'm 2000 miles away.

Angie, thanks so much for asking.

He is home from the hospital and doing okay.

I am hoping that my mom is able to transfer out here so that they can move sooner than planned. The cold and snow is hard on him. This heart attack occurred while he was snow-blowing (and I know that there is no actual link between exercise and heart attacks, but I still think he'd be better off out here)

thank you for your prayers.

Melanie

Praying for a smooth transition, and soon.

I'm sorry but snow-blowing isn't exercise...its something else entirely and my siblings have asked my dad to please stop already. Sheesh, he would blow all the neighbors walks, too, because he used to be the young guy on the block. God bless our dads.

Love,
