This came up in my memory today. It has been a long time since I've thought about this, so I'm not sure why it came to mind today. Perhaps reading John's miracle brought it to mind.
It is a long story, but I'll try to make it short. This happened about 21 years ago, before I retired. I had gone back to school at night at High Point University and was sitting in the first class that evening when I began to feel "unwell". Not nauseous, or anything I could really describe as I had never experience... moreThis came up in my memory today.

It is a long story, but I'll try to make it short. This happened about 21 years ago, before I retired. I had gone back to school at night at High Point University and was sitting in the first class that evening when I began to feel "unwell". Not nauseous, or anything I could really describe as I had never experienced anything like it previously. I left the class to go to the office and see if I could get some water and maybe some aspirin. I made it to the office and the next thing I know, I'm being loaded into an ambulance and taken to Wake Forest University hospital. They said I was having a heart attack.
They got me stabilized in the ER, then admitted me. The Drs were saying it was a mild heart attack, but they wanted to do more tests. Some time during the night, I had another, more severe heart attack. The testing revealed a 90% blockage in my anterior descending artery (I think that's correct - going by memory), and lesser blockage in two other arteries. They scheduled me for a stent the next morning.
By that time, everyone at my church had been notified and they were all praying.
The next morning, they wheeled me into the OR to begin the process of placing the stents. But, no stents were placed. The blockage was gone, cleared up, disappeared.
The Drs couldn't figure out what happened. But I knew and the people at my church knew. God had plans for my life and He wasn't done with me yet.
