My husband Roy, 75, has had multiple heart issues, two heart attacks, open heart surgery, seven stents, carotid endarterectomy, whereby the plaque is removed from the artery in the neck. God has raised him, healing him since he was 43 years old! The next procedure was for his chest pain approximately four years ago at Memorial Hospital in Savannah, where his Dr. needed to put in another stent in a blocked artery.
I was in the waiting room with my children, Michelle and Mark, as we were praying, someone from the operating room came to get us to go back to where Roy was having his procedure. We had no idea why.
When we walked in, we found him lying under a bright light and his doctor was sitting and bent over him. He explained the procedure he was trying to do and told us it could cause a heart attack and wanted our permission to move forward. Thankful, Roy was awake and heard everything. He said, “I’m here, you may as well go ahead.” He gave his permission for the doctor to proceed. We were escorted back to the waiting room, where we called, and texted, telling our family and friends what was happening and asking them to please pray for Roy.
Then the three of us there began praying. About an hour later, Roy’s doctor came into the waiting room all gowned up and had a big smile on his face! He said, “I don’t know what just happened, but as I was trying to open Roy’s clogged artery, other arteries all around it began opening up and blood flowed in areas that formerly had been closed. He said, “I have never seen anything like this before!”
It was then that I told him a whole bunch of prayers had been going up for him as he was working on Roy! His expression made it clear he understood! He said, “So that’s the reason all the closed arteries began opening up, and blood flowed in areas I hadn’t touched! Yes, God had just answered our prayers through him, and Roy just had another miracle from God poured out on him. Hallelujah!
