Rudy ended up having a four-hour heart cath. Longer than everyone expected because of what the team saw when they got in there. Dr. Dan and Dr. Harake saw a couple places where stents would ease the workload on the heart and were successful in doing so. More details later but for now we’re waiting it out in PACU until they give Rudy a room tonight. His first word when we got to him was “UP!” so we’ll see how successful we are at getting him to lie still like he’s supposed to. For now, the World Cup seems to be doing the trick!

Wow! That must have been a shocker for you! Glad they were able to put in the stents…whew! Hugs! Prayers!

Praying for you guys and Rudy! Praying it’s a peaceful night.
Sounds like stents are a good thing, continuing to pray for relief for your big-hearted boy! We love you all!
Glad there was some action to do – that feels good, perhaps?
Sweet dreams to all of you. So glad it is over and now we look forward to a full report when you have one. Love to all!
