We just finished up getting all the news from the doc. about my grandfather and his heart problem. He's been diagnosed with Ventricular Tachycardia and will be taking Diltiazem, which is a calcium channel blocker. As of now, his doc thinks the med will do the trick. They didn't find any signs of underlying heart disease at all. 
He will begin the new med in the morning and we're all praying that it does the job and no further action will be needed. He has been instructed to call 911 if he has another "episode," but we pray it doesn't happen.
Thank you all so much for your prayers and positive thoughts. I'm amazed everyday by how God hears and answers our prayers. I'm truly blessed to be in the midst of wonderful women here who will stop what they're doing and pray for others.
