If anything was posted here on AFF, I missed it-- but this was on Margie's facebook page. I'm sure she won't mind it being posted here, so that her friends here who haven't already seen this on facebook can pray.

We need your prayers today, friends. The rescue squad took Walt to the hospital this morning at 5:15 with chest pains. The doctors are saying that they do NOT think that what is happening is heart related - for which we give God all kinds of thanks!! But they are keeping him overnight to do more testing and for observation. They've drawn blood. His enzyme levels are negative in the first draw. They just did a 2nd .
Posted at 1:57 pm yesterday:
(I posted that enzyme level stuff for Aunt Dot and Tracy cuz it'll mean something to them :) ) They've done a chest x-ray. It was ok. They did a CT Scan 2 weeks ago and everything was stable at that point. I'm going to suggest that maybe they might want to repeat it now since he didn't have the pains 2 weeks ago. Right now they've taken him down ... Read Morefor the 1st half a drug-induced stress test and will do the 2nd half tomorrow morning.
In the meantime, like I said, they do NOT believe this heart. So pray that that figure out what it IS :)
By the way, let me tell you what makes me nervous most - 2 days ago Walt came home with papers for me and said, "Here, I made out a simple will. I just felt like it was important to have this done right now."
So pray. Thank you, everyone!!!!

I appreciate all of your prayers for Walt today. So far they are saying they don't believe it is his heart. that's good news. They are doing a medication induced stress test. they did the first half today and will do the 2nd half tomorrow morning. I want to ask the doctor about repeating the CT Scan of the dissected aorta because this pain didn't start until AFTER he had had the CT 2 weeks ago. Something could have developed between then and now. I hope not, but would rather know for sure. I'll keep you posted as we know more. In the meantime, again, we thank you for praying.
This is the last information that is available on her facebook page as of now.
Please keep both Walt & Margie in your prayers.
