David reported that Susan came through the heart cath with flying colors! The doctor said that the EKG was excellent, no blockages and that everything looked good from the inside as well. He reported that Susan's heart is operating at this time at about 45% efficiency - normal is between 50 and 60 - and this is more than twice what it was when she came in (was about 20% efficiency). So, he was very encouraged by all that the tests revealed.
She was in recovery for a short period of time, and then will return to her room. They still plan to do the pacemaker tomorrow (Thursday). The doctor further told David that if all goes as well as he expects, Susan might be able to come home sometime around the first of next week.
We will continue to lift Susan, David, Jon and Julie and the rest of the family up in our prayers, and be sure to give God the praise, honor and glory for all that is being done - He is the God Who heals - Jehovah Rapha...
