Cline / Riddle Prayer Request

From Lisa ---

Please keep my aunt and uncle in your prayers. My Aunt Brenda went for a stress test today for chest pains she had felt and they said she had blockage and sent her straight to the ER. They felt they were going to be able to do a stent to open up the blockage, but once viewing the heart, arteries, and where the blockage actually was they have determined it would be too risky to proceed with the stent. They have elected to do a double bypass in the morning as of now. They say she is one of the very few that has chest pains this early and has probably prevented her from having a stroke or a heart attack which is a praise. Please pray for her and the surgery she is about to undertake tomorrow. Also, her husband David, has been scheduled for several months with a neck/back surgery due to take place on Thursday morning. He is unable to reschedule this surgery at this point and is an extreme amount of pain. Therefore, she will be in Oak Ridge and his surgery is scheduled in Knoxville. If all goes well with Aunt Brenda she will be home by this weekend. My Uncle David will be recovering for several days in Knoxville. (FYI these are the parents of my cousin Brian you all were praying for a couple of months ago for chest pains as well. He had finally broke down and scheduled a doctor's appointment to start digging deeper on his chest pain issue -- which is a huge praise and it happens to be Thursday morning as well. WOW...)
I know this is rather long and detailed.... However, my entire family covets your prayers during this time for them.
