In the rush, I totally forgot to include who I am, Mrs. Zanetti didn't forget though, I'm Frank's nephew Scotty's wife, Amy. Thank all of you for your kind thoughts and prayers.
Frank had a bad night, doctors administered heart stopping drugs twice to change the beat of his heart. Still no word on what's causing it.
I've returned to be w/Frank during this terrible time, we're so afraid we're going to lose him. He can't hardly communicate w/us at all, he's terribly weak and any talking takes all his energy. I just sit and hold his hand, hoping he'll know he's not alone during this and that we're there for him. It's tough, we really love this guy. Scott will be here Thursday on and I'll return for a few days work, then back to my post next to Frank.
In closing, PLEASE, NO PHONE CALLS. The only phone he has is a cell and it's in my care, last night someone woke me up to inquire as to his progress, thank you, but please, it's something we need everyone to ahere to, please. It isn't that we don't want the calls, it's just not the right timing right now. Please be patient and as soon as possible, we'll get his phone to him, but not until he can handle it and I don't need to be woke up in middle of night. I know you meant well, but please, no calls.
ps-Scotty is in good hands, mine. He's been w/me, w/Frank, and will continue to lie at foot of his bed. First thing Frank will see is him, trust me. (and as soon as he can comprehend, we'll share all the love here w/him-God bless the lot of you)
Amy

Amy, thank you for the update. Frank is in our thoughts and prayers. He's an incredible guy. I had lots of fun with him and Scotty in Lodi a couple years ago.

Oh Amy, I'm so relieved you're there. Frank loves you and Scott so much. How did you talk the hospital into letting Scotty be there? That's fantastic.
Please whisper in Franks ear that Samantha and Kimberly send love and kisses. Clay sends his love as well but Frank probably doesn't want his kisses. ;-);-)
Please keep us posted, I've been checking the board constantly hoping for any news.
We love you Frank.
Amy, email me or call me (831-449-5019)if there is ANYTHING I can do.

Amy You as well as Frank will be in my prayers.
Heavenly Father, you have called us all by name long before we were conceived, before we experienced our first breath. You knew just what our purpose was for our life and who we would touch in that life. Lord, we that have been touched by our brother and sister that have in this hour of need your healing, ask that you bring your healing hand upon Frank and Amy, grant them your strength and healing powers upon their body, mind and sole. In the hours and days ahead touch them with you Spirit and speak to their hearts and grant the your comfort and strength. This we ask in the name of Jesus, Amen.

The first of the day brought word as to why, a partial why. When Frank got his perscription filled, he got, w/o asking, a generic version, turns out the ave. picked to save money was in particular drug he needs, so it only performed at a reduced rate, resulting in a similiar attack. His correct medicine seems to have done the job, he's back.
By day's end the hospital released him to home care.(a common occurence to those w/o ins.) Scott and I have to leave, but a close friend of his here and his family are taking over. His friend and also employer, jokes about it as an investment in the future, lol.
All in all, he's feeling tons better, and promises to behave from here on out, lol, as if that's going to happen, lol.
We've already started process to get him to VA hospital in Tucson. One, it's the closet and secondly it houses a reputedly good cardio dept., just what he needs, as they still don't know for sure what triggered his heart attack, the second one doesn't count, that was a fault of the meds.
So in meantime, he's resting at his apt., w/Scottydog (lol-my hubby stills thinks he named him after him).
For the present, I understand, he's decided to stay where he is now for awhile, he's got a standing invitation from his good friends in Utah to settle there, something we know he wishes to do at sometime in the future, but feels he can't leave here now until all his problems are solved or at the least, dealt with.
Scott and I are leaving as I mentioned, Scott's race schedule won't allow us anymore time to spend here, and we've done about all we can at this time, the rest has to be done by Frank. As he's a very strong-willed person, we feel he's more than capable of doing so and has already exhibited signs or hints to that effect. lol, t he man wants his "space". Though I must say, I'd not be leaving if I had any hint whatsoever that he's not ready to fend for himself some. He's weak, but getting stronger hourly, so we feel secure in leaving, knowing full well if he relapse', we're right back here. Besides, he's a fine example of self care, other than his smoking, which he claims is over, he'd always taken good care of his self, so again, we're leaving. Thank you for your support of Frank, who means the world to us.
Oh, he says as soon as he can, he'll start calling ppl. and check in online to read these letters to him. Amy

Frank, we're glad you're doing better. We hope to see you here again soon.
What's this world coming to? Ever since they took the lead out of One Shot, not even the medicines are lasting as long (although I've heard Mac users never have trouble with their meds).
