OT: Prayers Needed

Oh Dorothy what terrible news. I will be paying for your and your family. My family went through something similar. My dad had been on kidney dialysis for a few years. They said he needed open heart. He didn't want to do it. He was scared. They had said that if he didn't he would only have a few years left. We kept telling him he would feel so much better after he had it done. I even wanted to be tested to see if I could give him a kidney. He didn't want any of us to give him a kidney. When he decided to go get his open heart done. He finally told me after he got through that, he would let me get tested. He was in the hospital for 6 weeks. He never got to come home. We lost him. It was just one problem after another. First off. He got an infection in his incision. They had to take out part of his breast bone. They had to end up putting a trek in. Every week it was something new. He ended up dying from an ulcer in his intestines. They couldn't stop the bleeding. Sometimes I wonder if we did the wrong thing by begging him to have the surgery. Its been 3 years. Its still very hard for me. Here I am wiping my eyes just telling you my story. I pray that your dad gets the through this. I know its hard for you. I will be thinking of you.

Dorothy I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Hang in there. Thanks for your kind words. I sure hope the doctors can come up with a way to help your dad. It's bad enough he has Parkinson's. My husbands aunt had that. She always said she was in pain. I'll continue to think of you and your family. Hopefully you live close that you can visit often. Keep us posted.

Oh goodness Dorothy! You're family is in my thoughts and prayers.

I'll keep him in my thoughts Dorothy.
