Small bump in the road

Monty had physical therapy today and within a couple of minutes his heart rate was 160. His blood pressure was also elevated. He had to get new medicine for that. Hopefully they will get this under control. It was a tense few minutes watching the doctor and nurses pump him full of medicine to get his rates down. They also began him on coumadin today. That is the blood thinner that he will be on from now on. It will be a process to get the dosage regulated. Please pray that his heart rate and blood pressure stay in a safe range while increasing his activity.
