Congestive Heart Failure and Renal Failure.... we need your prayers

My husband was taken by ambulance to the hospital yesterday (and he wasn't happy about it either).  He has been ill for the last week and a half.   They diagnosed him with Congestive Heart Failure and Renal Failure.  He is in pretty bad shape.  They did dialysis on him last night.  They are going to do an ultra Sound on him today to see if they can find the cause of the Renal failure.   He is in intensive care right now, with a 24/7 nurse.  I am getting ready to go back to the hospital and wanted to post this first.  He needs your prayers.   His name is Ralph.  I'll keep you updated.....

Trudy, your husband is in my thoughts and prayers. A very close friend of mine that lives in the backcountry by himself nearly died of congestive heart failure and was told he needed to move to a lower altitude. This was over a year ago and he is back on the mountain doing relatively well. There is hope!
