Yes, I have said a prayer for you. But I would also like to tell you about
my experience. About 25 years ago, I had a pulmonary embolism go to
my lung, and my heart stopped several times. I think they called them
myocardial infarctions, which is just high priced name for heart stoppages.
It stopped once at home. Went to ER and it stopped once there. Went
on to Intensive Care and it stopped a few more times. It was a scary
episode for sure, but the main thing I remember was an overwhelming
feeling of peace. It was as if I didn't really care if I came back or not.
They put a Greenfield filter in my Vena Cava to catch any blood clots
coming up from my lower extremities. But one got ahead of them, so
they had to go down through my neck and put another filter at the
top of the Vena Cava.
That and Cumadin, to keep my blood thin, has kept me going. I am
85 now. I was about 60 back when that happened.
I was often asked if I saw the light at the end of the tunnel. My answer
(jokingly) was that I saw a guy in his red long handled underwear, holding
a pitchfork, standing by a little campfire.
There was a lot of heavy-duty prayers on my behalf, which I believe was
answered and that's where the peace and comfort came from.
I have had a few more of those little bumps in the road since then, and
consequently have an implanted defibrillator/pacemaker.
I hope all of the prayers coming your way will help you receive that
peace and comfort that I did. Take it from someone who has been
there, the other side isn't that bad.
