To those of my readers who know–even if only by name–our dear friend Warren Throckmorton, please pray for him today, along with his wife Debbie and dear family. Warren suffered a heart attack on Sunday, and will be undergoing triple bypass surgery at noon today (Tuesday the 18th). I will keep you posted as I know anything.

On Sunday Warren had a heart attack. Mild as it was, it led to tests which led to a heart cath which led us to a triple by pass surgery on Tuesday. He came through surgery wonderfully, had a great morning today. He walked some and ate some and then got very tired and then the pain from the chest tubes started. He really is doing great and can’t wait to get those tubes out! We ask for your prayers during this time of recovery and learning! Warren is very determined to follow orders so he can get back to all the things he loves doing! Thanks so much for all the prayers and those to come. We have an awesome God and we are so thankful for his love for us!

Friday September 21st 2012 at 5:14 pmI’m really sorry that I didn’t update this, and Ken, I’m also sorry that I don’t know for sure, but I THINK he is in Butler at a hospital there. Being in GA, I don’t have real-time access to some of the answers, but last I heard, things were going quite well. Thanks, all, for your prayers and concerns!

Thursday September 27th 2012 at 11:39 pmByron – Thanks for putting up this post and for asking people to pray. I am now home and in a lengthy recuperation period (e.g., can’t drive for 6 weeks).But I am now much healthier after three clogged arteries were bypassed. Thanks again for the good thoughts and prayers.
