Tricia,

My goodness your story is such an inspiration! I tip my hat to your strength and courage.

Procedures are scary not matter what our age. I image at 79 they are even more worrisome. I will pray your arteries are clear, your lungs are clear, and that you sail through the procedure tolerating it well. I penciled you into my Day Planner so I will keep you before the Lord tomorrow while you are having the procedure.

Please post an update on your condition when you are able. I will pray "no more blood clots" as well. I hope you will move through this and will have your bounce back in your step in no time!
