At 1:30 PM Wednesday the Doctor came in to do an evaluation on my dad in an effort to prepare him for an angiogram that was scheduled for this morning. Originally the Doctor had told us that an angigram was necessary to determine the location of the aneurysm and make an attempt to repair it and prevent future issues. The risk involved here was that Dads kidneys may not filter the solutions pumped into his body for the procedure. However, we felt that the damage to his kidneys needed to be weighed over the damage that could occur to his brain by not locating and repairing the aneurysm. After some tests were run this morning the Doctor determined that at this point the angiogram is too risky for his condition. The following 24 hours are going to be full of decisions to make and constant monitoring. Over the next 24 hours I will ask that we all pray fervently for Gods will to be done in this situation. On behalf of my family and my Dad I thank each and every one of you for your continued support and love demonstrated to us. We know that regardless of the outcome of this, God had his hand in it and it WILL be for the greater good. Thank you for your prayers and love and I will post more information as it is received.
