Finally Home from ACFW and a Heart Attack, Really!

So did I catch your attention with the title?

I’m back from my sister’s house after ten days being away from the family. I know I have a lot of catching up to do about the ACFW conference, thoughts about being away so long and why I was away so long. This next week I’ll try to get my act together, but the house work that I left behind is a bit overwhelming.

Here’s a start…

On Tuesday, before I was scheduled to leave for ACFW on Wednesday, I got a phone call from my dad. My YOUNGER sister had a heart attack. SHE’S FINE! And I’ll get into more details later this week, but it was a major wrench thrown into my plans. Thank God I she lives in Fort Worth and I was able to see her a little while I was at the conference. (Her sister inlaw was staying with them the first week) I drove straight to the hospital and she looked like herself. Five foot, barely 100 lbs., and fiesty. It didn’t look like she had a heart attack, but she did. Her cholestrol was fine, her blood pressure was fine. Everything was fine except her enzyme count. She’s a smoker and had her right coronary artery 100% blocked. The whole way it happened was actually a miracle I’ll save for tomorrow. But if you think about it, say a prayer for her and her family.
