Hello, James has made it through quadruple bypass and is in ICU. The breathing tube has beed removed and he is responsive but in a great deal of pain. Doc says all went very well and he hardly bled at all which amazed everyone!
How great our God is! Everyone there said it had to be God's handd in it. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers and we wll bring more to you as we ca. Surgery started 4PM Thursday evening and ended around 8PM that night. Doc was visibly exhausted!
I am good and remarkably, held up very well! Until then with more updates....
Love, Loretta

Good Morning Dear Friends
It seems as if I have been away for months, but I know it has only been days. I hope today you and yours' are well and your experiencing much peace and happiness!
I see Vonetta posted for me and I am happy that she gave you an update. She, and Dawn have been so supportive and helpful to the both of us. I don't know what we would do without them. Importantly, I can't forget my Mom...she has truly been helpful keeping us uplifted with her encouraging words, and cooking healthy meals for James...truly a Blessing in so many ways!
I simply can't forget to mention how very much you all are appreciated for your loving, wonderful thoughts and sentiments...you can't begin to know how much they are welcomed and very much appreciated. Thank you all for your support and love!
Our prayers have given us peace of mind and a contentment I can't begin to explain. When I started to adhere, and to feel God's spirit, I found this little quote above that helped both of us.
You know how you allow your mind and heart to over-think things...this is something I'm very guilty of, and you never obtain peace within. When I read this, it all fell into place...it is self-explanatory, right?
James has gained so much from the visits received from fellow christians, friends and acquaintances...he too, is ready for what's to come this thursday. My main goal was to get him to this point... our Lord answered this prayer by giving us the time to do so...isn't it remarkable how, in His merciful and loving ways, He can set things straight for us! We are truly blessed to have such a Great God...praise Him!
James and I extend our love to each of you and may you have peace and love...Thanks again for all your love!

Just a Short Update...
Hello, I am Vonetta, James and Loretta's daugther and I will be updating you on my dad's condition. He spent all day Wednesday at hospital doing more test and lab work. His blood count was still low, and doc order an IV with iron, and B-12 shots. He's very weak and has to be builded up before this surgery next Thursday. Mom and Dad sends their love, and wishes you a Good Evening.
This has really been hard on them and the entire family, but they are doing very well together. They both have strong faith. The doc's have stopped counting the number of bypasses he will need! It is very serious, but he is strong-willed. They both are to be admired for their strength and love for each other!
I will post again when and after surgery. Thanks to you all for being friends with my parents and your loving concern for their welfare! I can tell they care a lot about all of you, because they tell us about how much they enjoy blogging! Thanks again.
Wishing you a very pleasant Evening,
Vonetta

Good Monday Morning All
Once again I find myself without expression of words. It has been this way since last week. Isn't it funny, how words or writing are so much a part of your life, but when things in your life change you are at a loss?
Your words/expressions have been comforting and deeply appreciated by both of us. However, the time is near and we both are anxiously awaiting the day. I've dreamed repeatedly, of all this not being true, and have awoke happy, only to realize it was only a dream! There are some thing's you just have no control over and you have to pray fervently...this we are doing!
This day will soon be upon us, so I wanted to let you know I will be taking a Hiatus! Vonetta came in late last night to help her sister Dawn, so they will give you updates.
Please continue to keep us in your thoughts, and with God's mercy and protective hand...we will survive! Thanks again for all your encouragement and thoughtfullness!
Blessings To You All,
Loretta
