From Bruce Smith:
Wag had 3 stints placed in one artery. They are kept him in ICU for observation. Not so much now on his heart but his kidneys. The dye used while doing the stint is tough on kidneys and his are not the best. They are going to wait about 6 weeks before placing another stint in his 90% blocked artery.  They are doing a little at a time since his heat and kidneys are weak. thats it at this time. 

Wag got home today (Sunday).  He will have to go in 6 weeks to have another stint done and later down the road have a pacemaker.

Keep up those prayers and get him thru this.

From Ken Rodd:
Below is a copy of a very nicely done document by Red Caldwell (printed both sides) that the group (Classic CASI POD) had made up to put in the pots. This is the group that thru the recommendation of RAY KING, had donated the $750 for pots.

I picked them up yesterday and I was really impressed - being a retired soldier, the written message really touched me deeply. I hope those receiving this feel like I did.



NOTE:  At this time, everything has been identified to include the raising of enough money to send supplies, etc to Baghdad.  Thanks to a Men's Group in Oregon for a donation of $350.  If there are some last minute needs, it will be advertised.
