Please pray for my dad; he's 79 and was in St. Louis with my brother Scott and his family and he passed out at the food court at the mall. The ambulance came and took him to Missouri Baptist Hospital, and his blood pressure was about 60/40. This has actually happened several times when he gets dehydrated and his potassium is low. At least that's what they've said in the past. Today they are checking his heart for strange rhythms. His blood pressure is back up some, but not where it should be after lying still for hours and pumping in 2-1/2 bags of fluids.
He has passed out in Orlando, Maui, my brother's church in St. Louis, various and sundry restaurants, my guest bathroom, his own bathroom, and several other places I can't think of right off the bat. He has only hurt himself once when he fell, and that was minor. But it's getting kind of scary; he could keel over anywhere. Also pray for my mom; this is hard on her; she's afraid to leave him alone.
Just read this Sherri. I will pray.

Lord touch Sis.Sherry's daddy. Give him physical strength. Bless her mother and give her peace of mind. Let there be something found that makes a world of difference in his health. Your blood Jesus makes all the difference. Bless him and keep him safe in mind and body.In Jesus Name
I know several people who have had the same problem. After getting a pacemaker, they have a new lease on life. I wonder if he would be a canidate for one?
Well, thanks for all the prayers; I do believe it makes a difference! My dad is now at Scott & Michelle's house, resting. There was nothing wrong with his heart; it was just dehydration, which makes his blood pressure plummet, I guess. We should be used to this by now, but it's always scary. I just don't want him to ever pass out, fall and hurt himself!
Also, it scares me that it could happen while driving. He drove to St. Louis!!
