Regarding Saturday and Sunday’s postings
Friday morning I awoke in a state of extreme exhaustion, and with difficulty breathing. The medics from our fire department (I am their chaplain) decided to transport me to the Emergency Room of Swedish Cherry Hill Medical Center in Seattle. Examined by the ER doctor, and after consultation with my cardiologist, Dr. Peter Demopulos, they decided to do a cardioversion. Cardioversion is a medical procedure done to restore a normal heart rhythm for people who have certain types of abnormal heartbeats (arrhythmias). My Cardioversion was done by stopping my heart, and then sending electric shocks to my heart through electrodes placed on my chest, and on my back, just behind my heart. It took five cardioversions before they were able to bring my heart into a normal rhythm. After spending Friday night in the hospital, I’m now back in the monastery, where I slept a straight eleven hours last night. I will see my doctor on Monday, and am prayerfully hoping my heart is still in normal rhythm. I solicit your holy prayers.
With love in Christ,
Abbot Tryphon
P.S. God willing, I will be able to restart my regular blog postings on Monday.

Dear Abbot Trypon,
Thank GOD they were able to help you. When we didn’t receive your “Morning Offering” yesterday we called the Monastery to inquire on the status of your health. We were assured that you were OK and would be back today.
You are in our daily prayers and look forward to your “Morning Offering”. They are included in our daily morning prayers as we find them very uplifting and strengthen our Orthodox faith.
GOD bless you and thank you,

O Lord our God, Who by a word alone didn’t cure the kinswoman of Peter, Thou who chastise with pity and heal according to Thy goodness, do Thou Thyself grant aid to Thy servant Tryphon and cure him of every sickness of which he is grieved , and send down upon him Thy great mercy and ,if it be Thy Will, give him health and complete recovery, and to Thee do we send up Glory to The Father and to The Son and to The Holy Spirit, both now and forever and unto ages. Amin!

Many prayers for you and those who care for you. Although I am an Anglican (and former Catholic priest) I look forward each day to your morning offering. Take care of yourself and know that my inexhaustible prayers for your full recovery are, well, inexhaustible.

With you.
My husband will be having a cardioversion soon. Your description was helpful to him. It helped him realize that he shouldn’t delay it. I appreciate you and your work so much
Nina
Just before they were about to do the procedure, I announced to the cardioversion team, and making the sign of the cross over them, that I forgave them who were about to kill me. They all laughed, and that was it. Humor helps one face a lot of trials, I believe.
Dear Father,
You will have my prayers, please take care of yourself and do what your doctors advise, even if it means slowing down a bit! I would like to keep you around for a bit longer! God bless you! (but not too much-I am not ready to ask you to pray for me in heaven!) forgive my selfishness. †
St. Anne parish is praying for you daily. God grant you His grace and peace.
Dear Father,
Glad to hear you are doing ok and the cardioversion was a good fix for you. I must admit I was concerned that I missed your post and was thinking about it thru out the day. I look forward to reading it every morning before starting my day and really missed you yesterday. I pray that you get back to great health soon. Take it easy and take care of yourself. You are in my prayers.
God Bless You and keep you in good health for many years!
Carole

Yes, Father, thank God for humor. I pray that you have a speedy recovery.
You are in my prayers! May God have mercy and grant you grace throughout. Lord have mercy!
as reflective of your comment, humor is the best medicine we can prescribe for ourselves as well as others……
May God bless you and heal you quickly. Many prayers being sent your way.
