God is so good. I’m sitting here in the family waiting room at the hospital, bleary-eyed and weary, but thanking him for saving my husband’s life tonight. Gabe had a heart attack earlier this evening, but he’s going to be okay.
I don’t know any technical terms, but he had a blockage in his most important artery, and while it’s often called a widow-maker, they got to it in time and put a stent in, and he’s going to be okay.
Please pray for his continued recovery and strength for me as I help care for him in the days to come. We’ll be in the hospital at least through Tuesday.
I’m blown away tonight by God’s goodness and the amazing family we have at Sanctuary Columbus Church. Thank you, Jesus.
In this time of your husband’s health crisis, may the Lord be more real and dear than ever before. I pray that Gabe will be given the best medical care to strengthen his heart. The Lord Jesus will be his primary healer as the image of death is erased and the victorious life of Jesus prevails.
sending hugs – I am shocked! Praise God he’s going to be okay!
I just ache to be with you right now, dear friend. Squeezing you tight across the miles and praying, praying, praying.

Marla, I had no idea this was happening!! I don’t know what to say except THANK GOD Gabe is ok and help was available. I wish I was close to help, but I am praying!! Love you all!
Marla! I’m shocked. I’ll be praying for you and your girls. Praise Jesus for Gabe’s life.
I am in shock and can only imagine what you all are experiencing at the moment. Praise God that Gabe is going to be alright. I hope you will take up people on their offers to help. Praying for you all. Let us know how else we can help.
Oh, Marla – Praying for you and Gabe and your sweet girls – and thanks to God.
Oh my goodness! I just knew something was up when I didn’t see a blog post!! Thank you, Jesus, for saving his life! Sam and I just prayed and I’ll continue praying. Lots of love from Hamtramck coming your way!
I will be praying for all of you….so glad they were able to get in there in time. If you guys need anything…help with girls, dinner/lunch, etc please don’t hesitate to call honey…no appointments or anything so I’m available at any time. Love all of you!!
Praying for you both. Praising God for saving Gabe’s life.
Oh, Marla…I have no words except…THANK YOU, JESUS! God is good. Praying for your entire family!
Oh Marla, I’m so glad to hear they caught it in time and I know exactly where you are at emotionally. Last year, my husband (46 yrs old at the time), had a 99% blocked artery and had a heart attack with no previous symptoms. It came out of the blue while we were on vacation. He also had a stent put in and was in the hospital for 4 days. It rocked my world but not in a good way.
My prayers are with you in the days ahead. My husband bounced back fairly quickly and has had no signs since. He now will have to see a cardiologist and take a stress test every year for the rest of his life but that’s ok because he’s still with us.
Please keep us updated as we pray for you and your family.
Marla, oh my goodness! I’m so glad they caught it early!! Lots of prayers for you guys!
The first thing I thought of was God’s sovereignty. If this had happened 42+ days from today… But we know that God is good, he has plans for us to work good in our lives, and he cares deeply for his children. This was not a surprise to God, he saw it coming from millennia away. Praise God that we serve the living, active, amazing I AM! May God quiet you with his love. We will be praying for all your hearts.
Praying for all of you, dear Marla! Thanking God that He was so gracious to save Gabe!
