I do not know whether to ask for prayers for myself or my dad. He is having prostrate surgery on Tuesday, so I need to go to my parents for the week and take care of him and my mom, all at once
My mom has Parkinson's, Emphysema and numerous other health problems, so dad is her caretaker... except for the week I stay down every month and even then I am really just there to give dad a decent conversation
So, I am off tomorrow for the week and will be back late Friday afternoon. Maybe when they both are napping I can try and sneak on to VMK. Of course, I might be sleeping just as well or passed out from exhaustion
Will miss you all
***********************
It is Tuesday night and my dad's surgery went VERY WELL
The prostrate was so
that the urethra was just about closed off
We got to the hospital at 5:30am, they took him back at 7:30am, I came back to my parent's place to get mom's breakfast, and then back to the hospital I went... only to have missed the Dr. by 3 minutes
Then mom called and needed me back at the house ... I felt like I was trapped in a revolving door
Finally got dad home about 12:15pm, then made lunch for them both, and sent dad off to bed to get some rest. Kind of fun telling dad what he can and cannot do
He goes to the Dr. on Thursday to see about having the cat theater
rotfl:
) taken out.
I just want to say
for all the well wishes, thoughts, prayers, and
as it meant alot to me and my dad and I showed him the posts
Was GREAT to be able to hop onto VMK for the close and be with alot of caring people
Again, my dad sailed through the surgery, is home and doing well, and we BOTH appreciate the well wishes
