Lisa,

The "cath" transfer is basically what others have said already.  610-969-6264 is my cell.  I will probably be sleeping at some point durig the day, but feel free to text me. I'll explain what I can if everything seems to be "medical talk" to you to try to put it into laymens terms

Prayers to all of you!

Remember to keep taking care of yourself during this time.  Both him and need will you need you to do that.

Pam

Oh, and PS not telling your MIL right yet might not be a bad a idea, not until you have some further answers...my MIL is the same.  Get some clear cut answers and move from there (or at least some more somewhat clear answers.

I don't know what hospital you are in or their capabilities, but there is the potential that the hospital itself has a cath unit and he might just need to be transferred to another part of their hospital, not another one all together.  Keep us posted

Pam - we're currently in Pottstown Memorial Medical Center.  The CCU nurse said that they do not have a cath unit, so they will be transferring him to Phoenixville hospital tomorrow to the cath unit. 

I think you are right about having more answers to give his Mom.  I don't have much right now and she is the type to blast off a million questions as soon as I tell her.

Oh - abnd Phoenixville hospital is where Chris, a member here works (she is the one who is undergoing chemo etc for her cancer) but I believe she is still working in the ICU...so remotely you have a "Friend" working there :)

Lisa,

Let me know when he's being transferred to P-ville.  I'll come over and sit with you.  I'll be available probably later in the morning.  (I'm going with Paul for a tilt table test.  They're looking to see if it's something with his heart causing his dizzy spells.)  Let me know if you need anything---I'm just 3 blocks from the hospital.
