Re: Prayers needed for Don Kennedy.
This Is what I know to this point unless MJ has new info. Last night Don called me (he usually calls about 2 - 3 times a week). We go way back to the 70's when we were both running SD Pontiac's in SS. When I answered, I had to rib him some because he usually calls earlier. So I said a smart _ss thing: "Isn't this past your bedtime?" There was a pause and then he said "I 'm in the hospital and I had a heart attack. They have put 2 stents in me. I was shocked and said stent work well and most are outpatient, so you are probably going home soon. He said no, I have to stay. Tomorrow (Friday) they are putting 2 more stents in or doing heart surgery." Thats what I know at this point. If I'm wrong and people have more precise info then I apologize ... I have called Don 2 times today and he did not answer, left a voice mail ... Hopefully he is just resting and recovering ... Bill

The other racers need you out there doing what you do Don. Hang in there buddy. With God's help you got this.

Re: Prayers needed for Don Kennedy.
latest message from his Daughter today
 Jeni Lee West is with Kati Kennedy-Van Poppel and 3 others ? Well, it looks as if we may be coming to the end of my Dad?s marathon; unfortunately it isn?t ending in the way we had hoped. His lungs are just flat out giving up and it doesn?t look as if he will be able to stay in the race on this side of heaven. Thankfully, we know there is more than just this life and he will receive a full healing with Jesus. We aren?t sure on the timing, but we ask that everyone pray for God?s will in the situation.

Re: Prayers needed for Don Kennedy.
That's absolutely not the news we were hoping for. Prayers for Don and the family.
