OMG, Alison! I hope your dad is ok.

Have a safe drive if you decide to go up.

Jill in CO

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that. I hope everything goes ok with your dad.

Oh no! I am so sorry! I hope all goes well! Did he pass out at the doctor's? At least he was in good hands immediately then.

I'll email you!



OH my gosh, I hope everything is okay. Prayers and drive safely! :goodvibes

Thanks folks. I talked to my mother. Evidently he passed out twice on Monday, but he wouldn't let my Mom call 911. They made the Doctor appointment for yesterday and he passed out again while at the Doctor, so they called 911 and he got to the hospital around 4PM. They didn't get him into a bed until 10PM and then all they gave him to eat was a pudding, and he couldn't eat after midnight. My mom will keep me posted, but he still has to see all the different doctors who would be taking care of him. She said not to come up. He will just want to rest once he comes home and he doesn't really like to talk to people anyways. This might also mean that my parents aren't coming down for the birthday bash.
 
Wow. I'm so sorry. I hope he is ok.
Just have to say though...I LOVE those hippie pictures!! Wow!!
 
It sounds like he is in good care. And this stubborn parents, who refuse to see a doctor when they pass out... I kind of know that scenario. o_O

Hope that all will go well with him and that he soon will feel better! What a shame if they can't come to your birthday bash!!

And I wanted to add that I also love those hippie pictures!! You were a cute hippie!! :hippie:
 
OK, total change of plans. Yesterday my dad was seeing his doctor and he passed out. They called 911 and took him to the ER where they admitted him to the hospital. He's having a pacemaker put in today so Fran and I are thinking of driving up there today. I'm waiting to hear back from my mom, but we may have an impromptu trip here.

Oh no. I hope you makes a swift recovery. At least he is in good hands.

Oh Alison, I am so sorry to hear about your dad. :hug: Sending love and light and thoughts of strength.
 
So sorry to hear this and not at all what you needed! Sending thoughts and prayers your way~
 


What is this refusing to call 911??? I'm glad he's in the hospital and hopefully they figure out what is going on ASAP! I'm sorry, these kinds of things are usually very stressful and scary.

Scary stuff, I'm glad they have him in the hospital now where they can get him back on his feet. Wishing your Dad a speedy recovery and your Mom some patience.:hug:

Hugs for you too since they'll be missing your special weekend!:hug:

He should be, thanks, I was about 20 years too late!

From what I gather your Dad is just as stubborn, I don't get it. Fran is that way too.

Hope that all will go well with him and that he soon will feel better! What a shame if they can't come to your birthday bash!!

I'm hoping it all goes well, and it seems that they will still be able to make the birthday bash.

And I wanted to add that I also love those hippie pictures!! You were a cute hippie!! :hippie:

Thanks! As I mentioned above I was about 20 years late. I was hippie when everyone else was Preppie!

Oh no. I hope you makes a swift recovery. At least he is in good hands.

Corinna

I'm OK, I just hope that my Dad makes a swift recovery and feels up to the birthday celebration.

Oh Alison, I am so sorry to hear about your dad. :hug: Sending love and light and thoughts of strength.

Thank you! :flower3:

I am sorry to hear about your father and hope he is okay.

My Mom seems to think he will be, so let's hope she is correct!

So sorry to hear this and not at all what you needed! Sending thoughts and prayers your way~

Yeah, exactly! Thanks for your prayers!

What is this refusing to call 911??? I'm glad he's in the hospital and hopefully they figure out what is going on ASAP! I'm sorry, these kinds of things are usually very stressful and scary.

Yeah, I don't know. Fran is just like that too. My Mom now knows that when Dad says no, not to listen!

Scary stuff, I'm glad they have him in the hospital now where they can get him back on his feet. Wishing your Dad a speedy recovery and your Mom some patience.:hug:

Hugs for you too since they'll be missing your special weekend!:hug:

I'm glad that they have him under wraps, and it seems that they will make the weekend.
 
So Thank you all for your sentiments. They have my Dad scheduled for 7AM surgery tomorrow morning. My Mom will check in at 10AM. Evidently the insertion of the pacemaker is minimally invasive so he will be out on Saturday and can resume his daily life. They are still planning to come down for the Birthday Bash! :banana:

We decided not to drive up there since my Mom didn't think that my Dad would appreciate company. I might have gone anyways, but to be impulsive and drive 8 hours to not be completely welcomed, when they were driving 8 hours to come see us a week later sort of seemed a little bit much. However, if my mother had not played everything down, we would have been up there in a heartbeat.

I'll have to keep this in mind as they age, because we should be ready to go up there in a heartbeat now that they are getting older. Fran's parents hit "that age" when they were about 10 years older than my parents are now. Anyways, one week until the out of state DIS gals fly in! My parents will already be here. A week from tomorrow we all check in to the VGC!


party: :woohoo: :banana: :dancer:
 
Glad to see Fran is getting better and can now put some weight on the leg! Sorry to hear about your dad, hoping he makes a swift recovery.

Is your birthday on the Friday or the Saturday? Myself, brother and Sister are all May babies and all Taureans (all the best people are ;))
 
I hope the surgery goes well and I am glad that it still looks like they are going to be able to make your birthday bash.

Corinna
 
Once again all the best for your Dad, I hopt the sugery goes well and he will recover quickly. And that is good news that they might be able to come to your birthday bash anyway. Things are starting to look better again with this hopefully working out well and Fran being able to put weight on her feet!
 
I'm glad things are looking better now. My Grandpa had a pacemaker put in a few years ago, and while anytime they do surgery on your heart is a big deal, it really isn't one of the more risky things they could be doing. I'm sure it will turn out fine and I'm glad to hear that they'll still be able to attend the birthday bash!
 
Hoping the surgery goes well today. :goodvibes :hug: Happy it's not super invasive.

A week from today is party time! party: Glad your folks will be able to make it. Looking forward to meeting everyone!
