Scary, Mark. I"m sorry you and your family have to go through this. I'll keep all of you in my thoughts, hoping for the best.

Hang in there HHH. You need to be strong for your Dad. He will feel your strength.

My prayers go out to you and your Dad.

Well, the surgery went as good as expected...they found about 4 liters of fluid around where the incision was made, which was causing his high fever and bloated stomach. Right now, he's in ICU on a ventilator to help him breathe and may come off of it possibly tomorrow if all goes well. It looks a little better than last evening, but the next few days will tell. Thanks to everybody for the well wishes and I'll keep all of you posted. Things can only get better.

He made it through surgery well, that's the start. Good news so far, I'll keep thinking of both of you.

Dad is doing much better, mostly likely out of ICU today...his spirits are up and things look better.
Once he's up walking around and can have some sort of liquids & food...I'll feel much better!

Yesterday, dad was released from the hospital after being there for 24 days. He will be doing rehab at a local health care facility for at least 10 days if not more. He needs to get his strength back where he can walk again on his own. First, he has to start eating more to build that up. I know he is in good hands there and it's only 20 mins. from my home.
Thanks to ALL with your support the last few weeks, it's made it a much more easier thing to go through knowing that all of YOU have been thinking me and dad. God bless you all!
and hopefully I'll meet many of you at the Spa the next month.
