My....

[Mistress]

My dad is in the hospital, I'm worried about him.
My boss called me and told me so I'd know to stop by there before going to work today. He's having trouble breathing, he's had Emphysema for a long time now, and he has done had one lung surgery. His father before him died of the disease when I was just a baby. I don't want my dad to pass on without getting to know my future kids. I want them to know what kind of a good hard working man he is.
We were just over there Friday night and he seemed just fine. Throwing my baby brother up in the air and catching him, laughing at the squeals, he seemed to be just fine.
So I'm worried, I don't like seeing my dad in pain or sick.....

Those of you who still communicate with your father/mother, have you ever been scared you were going to lose them?

I know how you are feeling Mistress. Two years ago my father had a major stroke and we didn't know if he would make it or not. It was fathers day week end and all the grand children were there when it happened too.

So we had some big decisions to make. We ended up going with a clot busting medication that they really don't like using for stroke patients. With that medication and a lot of prayers he made it through with only mild deficits, but we still have him here with us.

So the only thing I can say is to Pray and have faith. And I will pray for your father too.

 

[Mistress]

Thanks snuggles

 

[Logic]

you are welcome, anytime

You'd think..

If your Dad was that sick, someone from his FAMILY would have called you.

I guess that in itself says a lot, huh?

So what's this about, is this on the real or is it a way to divert the not so flattering attention that you've been receiving?

If it's true, then all the best and go visit.

If it's cheap heat...then you suck more than I thought.

My dad is in the hospital.............

Mistress

I have lost both of my parents so I sympathise with you greatly.

The only thing I can think of to say that may be of any help is that you should ensure your Dad knows just what he means to you and what your fears are. The knowledge that he may not see his grandchildren and how that would upset you may fortify him to fight harder should he need to........ I hope not though.

Also, if the worse comes to the worse, it will be a comfort to you to know he had full possession of your depth of feeling.

Sorry, hope he recovers soon.

I know what you're dealing with right now... I lost my Dad to cancer this past February. He did live long enough to enjoy his first grandson... my brother has a 2-year old boy. Even so, my own children (whenever they might arrive) will never know who he was, and that hurts me a little bit.

Hang in there. I'll be thinking about you. And like Logic said, just keep the faith.

Thank you, I don't know all the details yet which is why I need to go by there before work. I called the hospital room and spoke to him very breifly, he couldn't breath well enough to talk for longer then a minute, so I talked to his girlfriend. They don't want me to worry too much but we all know how that goes. He's my father, of course I'm going to worry. She did say he'd be staying in the hospital probably for a couple of days. The worse part is, my dad doesn't really have the money to pay for the stay, so I hope he gets all the help he needs there before people start worrying about the bills.

Thank you, I don't know all the details yet

Mistress

Well, as I said, I hope he recovers fast.

Let us all know how things go

 

[batter]

been there

lost my father to parkinsons and alzheimers disease 8 yrs ago.
he was only retired (early retirement) for a yr and a half before he came down with the symptoms and almost 1 yr before he had to be put into an extended care unit. He was in there for 18 months before he died.

my mother has been battling breast cancer for 12 years now. she gets it back now and then and has had a breast removed and she now is being treated for bone cancer in her back which seems to be responding well to medications.

whenever she gets checked out, and if it is not in remission, yeah, we get scared that she won't be around anymore.

 

[Mistress]

Thank you everyone for the kind words. I need to head out now, so I'll see everyone later on tonight. Take care!

Yup, not too long ago they found a mass in my dad's stomach while doing an xray for something else. It was about a week before he could get the tests to tell him what it was, and all the research I did on the internet came up with horrible possibilities for stomach masses. I was scared beyond belief. I asked many people I know to pray for him. It turned out the xray was wrong and he had no mass, so he was lucky. So was I, as I'm not ready to lose him yet.

Good luck, I hope everything turns out okay for you and your dad, too.

 

[Jessy]

HUGS Mistress I hope everything works out. I know how you feel on wanting your dad around and such for I never got the chance to now mine.

 

[Xander]

Oh Gods....He is a good man, your father Mistress.

He is gonna be okay!! He has to.

Lemme know if there is anything I can do okay.

As for the question, Never really had my parents in a position where they got hospitalized for something of extreme seriousness. Though my Mom does have a heart condition.
On the other hand.....I havent spoken to them in a long long time, due to family disputes.
Contact has just recently been established again.

Dunno how that'll go....only time can tell.

 

[JenJ]

Hugs Mistress I hope he gets better soon. HUGGS and more HUGGS if you need more just let me know

 

[LordMagicMan]

Everyday of my life for that last 5 years of my life. You know I'm here for you in anyway, but I know what you are going through. Hope to catch you on MSN later so we can talk.

 

[Guest]

Four years ago I had the scare of my life. My mom had a heart attack...my dad had to force her to go to the emergency room.... and he was told as soon as he got there, that if he had been three minutes later....it would've been too late. Thankfully....my mom pulled through and they were able to unclog her arteries..... they found out that she had some kind of defect that caused her arteries to be almost half the size of a normal persons......
so since then..... my sisters and I have had to go through EKGs and Stress Tests to make sure we are ok..


but yes....that one scare was enough to make me not leave my house for four days.......scared I was going to miss a call...



*hugs*
if you need me....I am a message away

 

[Mistress]

UPDATE:


He's not doing any better, they are running a few tests on him, he's sore all over and in pain as well as not being able to breath. Form what I understand he went in last night, and he had to wait in the fucking ER for 4 hours before they got him a room and three more before they finally took him to it. I swear I hate that fucking hospital. Anyways, he's staying a couple of nights there, they are trying to help him breath better.

On a funnier side, all the docs are giving him for pain is tylenol (SP). That is not going over well with him, hehe he said if the doctor doesn't give him something better so he can finally get sleep after two days he's going to show that doctor where to put his tylenol. Of course, I told him to be nice to them, since they are trying to help, but my dad is stubborn.

We talked breifly a couple of times today while I was at work, those times it was hard for him to have a conversation for longer then a minute or two. My father is a strong man, but sometimes I'm afriad he wont be strong enough to fight......
