[QUOTE="fit2btied, post: 383306, member: 6"] Long requests. My baby brother, Stan, (52, two prior heart attacks, one major, one minor) had a heart cath Thursday and is scheduled for bypass surgery at Missouri Baptist Hospital in St. Louis next Thursday. It will definitely be a quadruple bypass and the two heart doctors are conferring to decide if they need to include a fifth one. Brother thinks all the cattle and hay work need to be done [i][b]before[/b][/i] the surgery! :) I'm so glad [b][i]I'm[/i][/b] not stubborn! :shock: :) New grandson born Friday! :D :D :D Jaxon Bryant, 8lbs 15oz, 21 3/4 inches long. All appeared to be well and then he started having some minor breathing problems. After extensive testing and no answers, the local hospital faxed all the info they had to Childrens Hospital in St. Louis. Childrens said it sounded like a collapsed lung and sent their airlift team down to get him. After they got him to their ICU they quickly confirmed that both lungs were partially collapsed. During pregnancy his mother was tested for gestational diabetes and was classified as borderline but was not treated. Childrens said he was a classic example of what happens when moms are not treated - large baby on the outside, almost preemie inside with underdeveloped lungs and sometimes other organs. They had him stabilized within minutes and he is showing improvement! :D :D :D They figure he will be in ICU at Childrens for at least a week. We need him at home to help get that hay up! :) We desire your prayers for my brother and our baby, and all other families facing problems, as well as travelling mercies as we drive back and forth to the city. Thanks, from the bottom of our hearts! Heading out again! Edited to include brother's first name. [/QUOTE]
