if you've known me for awhile, you know that i've had quite a few heartbreaking experiences with family members in the hospital. i'm trying to not reflect too much on those while i'm here with my dad. while his recovery is painfully slow, he is getting a little better each day. sadly, he was already pretty bad off with his heart problems so i'm not sure what his life will be like when he leaves the hospital, but for right now, we're just focusing on getting his breathing regulated so he can get off the vent. just so you can tell how his spirits are, they were talking about weaning him off the vent and he wrote this note: YOU DON'T NEED TO WEAN ME, I'M ALREADY A WEENIE. the fact that he's still cracking jokes and trying to kiss the nurses (the lady ones) goes a long way in keeping me calm. and the hot male nurse in the next room helps, too. :) thanks to all for support and well wishes. i
love you guys!
erin- thanks for the update. I am praying for you and your dad.
