We are waiting to know what is going on.
He is alive but other than that we don't know much.
He is a great man.
The funniest and sweetest person you could ever meet.
C'mon Jerry. We love you so much and want to see you soon.
Your grandoggies are counting on you to come home again and play.
Beenie wants to lick your face and Frankie wants to chew a toy at your feet.
We want to hug you and hear your funny jokes.
Oh I am so sorry! I hope and pray he will be ok!!! :(
I am so sorry I hope he will be alright.
Prayers and thoughts to you and your family. I hope he is okay. We recently had this happen in our family, but my FIL got very sick with pneumonia as well and almost didn't make it, came very close, so I KNOW those prayers work. Wishing you all the best.
I'm so sorry to hear this Carmen. My thoughts and prayers are with your FIL and with you, Hubby, and family :(
I've said a prayer for Jerry. And will continue sending positive vibes throughout the day. *hugs*
Will be thinking of you all
Oh my gosh Carmen I am so sorry to hear that. Lots of prayers and good thoughts coming your way from me! Keep us updated as soon as you hear something!
My husband just spoke to his mom.
She says that Jerry is stable but unconscous.
They won't let her in the room. I wonder why.
Thank you for your prayers.
Carmen I am so sorry. Try to keep up hope- a heart attack that is treated early enough has a very good prognosis!
All the best for you and your family.
Oh Carmen, how scary. I am so sorry. Jerry, you and the family will be included in my prayers. {{hugs}}
What worries all of us is that this is his second. He had one 13 years ago and they operated. He had a quad by pass surgery and the doctors gave him another 5 years to live after that because it was so bad. :(Quote:

I'll will send positive thoughts to your FIL.
I don't know why they won't let your MIL in his room. I've never heard of that. Perhaps he is hooked up to some monitors and they don't want to scare her? Or maybe they just had to remove some monitors & wires before they let her in?
Anyhow, I hope he is doing well. Please keep us posted.
Take care.
I hope everything turns out ok with him!
HUGS,
Kim
Yikes! I hope he recovers.
I'm sorry to hear this.
Prayers and good thoughts for your FIL.
I'm hoping things go well for your father in law. Good luck to you all.
I will definitely keep Jerry in my prayers over the weekend. I will be away, but he won't be far from my thoughts.

He'll still be in our prayers. She may not be allowed in he room just yet because people are still needing to monitor every littlest thing.
They let her in finally. She called us 15 minutes ago and told us he is gaining color in his face. He is on oxygen and a nitroglycerine drip. He is conscious. She said he was even trying to tell jokes at one point.
I am going by thier house later to pick up some stuff for him (slippers, PJ's etc...) and then we will go visit and pick up MIL.
We will spend the night with her to keep her company.
Thanks for your prayers.
I'm so sorry to hear this. :( Hope he'll come through as he did the last one.
Sending positive thoughts to him and the whole family.
Carmen, your FIL will be in my prayers.
Prayers going out for Jerry's recovery. (((hugs))) for you.
Oh Carmen I am so sorry. It sounds like he is getting better though. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your FIL, your husband and all the family.
I hope Jerry is okay. He will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Hang in there Carmen. I know how hard it is for you guys. I'll keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. Get Well Jerry!!!
I am sorry to hear about your FIL. He sounds like a great person. I will pray that he gets the strength to recover from this. Our prayers are with you and your FIL.
I am so sorry to hear this. Prayers going out for your father-in-law and his family. Please keep us updated.
I've just discovered this thread, Carmen.
I'm praying hard for You and Your family, especially for your Father-in -Law.
I will keep "him" in my thoughts.
Take Care,!!!!
It sounds like he's doing a little better. I hope he continues to improve and can get home soon. Hospitals are no fun. It's much easier to get well once you're in your own bed and surroundings.
Oh no! :( I am so sorry for you and your husbands family! :(
Like Laura said, though, he beat the odds once and maybe he can do it again! :D
OK, First of all I want to thank all of you that thought of Jerry and sent well wishes and prayers.
We went to to visit him yesterday evening. They even let us in the room.
He look ok but not great. He was awake and off the oxygen machine. He even sat up in bed to visit with us.
He spoke coherently and seemed overall in good spirits.
After several tests, the doctors have ruled out a heart attack and a pulmonary but they have NO IDEA what happened to cause the pain, difficulty breathing and "tightening" in his chest.
He is still in the hospital today.
They did change his heart medications and want to monitor him, do more tests.
We spent the night with MIL to keep her company. Beenie and Frankie slept with her. She said they hogged the bed but were good cuddlers in her time of need. :)
So glad to hear that he's doing ok! So he didn't have a heart attack...hmm, wonder what it was then? Hopefully the doctors can figure it all out, but in the meantime I guess he's another 'medical mystery.' Keep us updated on his condition!
I hope he improves and can go home asap.
It sounds positive. I hope he continues to recover, maybe after his medicine is adjusted, he'll feel better. It may never happen again.
They still haven't figured out what caused my husband's heart "episode" last spring either, he's currently undergoing tests.
Thank-You for that up-date!!!!
I am relieved too!!!!! I'll check back again for more news concerning your Father-in-law.
Give Beenie and Frankie a hug, they are a big help, no doubt!!!!
Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers..............
Deb
yikes, didn't see this til just now.. sorry you (and all) had a scare! I'm so glad it wasn't a heart attack but too bad they don't know what(!)
I hope he's not in pain, even if he's off them soon. we will keep your dear jerry in our prayers/thoughts.
GET WELL SOON JERRY!
No heart attack- that's good news. With all heart conditions it is important that he is moitored- this is one of the things docs can control very well.
