2 days so far. Chest pains. Maybe a minor heart attack? They're still doing lots of tests.


I've the the command center, basically, passing on info to the rest of the family after I hear from my mom. But I don't know what to do concerning my little brother -- the one in the MTC. Do they have an emergency line where I can contact him? Or do they deem this not important enough? If she's going into surgery, which we don't know yet, I certainly think that he should get to talk to her -- but I don't know church policy. Anyone have any answers?

I went online and found a number that says 24 hours...have you tried calling this number? Phone: +1 (801) 422-2602
Call and find out what they will do.

And if they throw some medical stuff at you that you don't understand ask. There are a lot of us that have had heart problems the last bit it seems :(

I ended up calling and talking to his district president (I think?). Anyway, he said that he would talk to my brother and have him call my mom tomorrow. When I told my mom she was surprised I'd call the mtc, but didn't think it was a bad idea.

she's gonna be released tomorrow, they didn't find a blockage in the test they were doing today, just that one of the heart muscles is a bit weak. I assume the doctor will provide more info on that tomorrow.

Good news on your Mom. Hope her recovery is swift and uneventful.

Glad you called the MTC and I'm glad they were cooperative.

Sending good thoughts.
