Mike, sorry to hear this news...I also got some bad news about my dad just a few hours ago. He'll have to be opened up again tomorrow morning at 7:30am, he is not recovering well from the surgery he had a week ago. His spirits are way down and I feel helpless in what to do. Along with my dad's problems, things at home aren't well either. I really feel alone right now and I'm concerned that dad won't pull through this surgery. It's so good to have great people on this site who look out for each other in our times of need. My prayers go out to you, it will be the thing that gets us through.

Default Thanks everyone......

My dad's doing a little better today, a couple good signs his kidneys are working again. Also his potassium level is normal, and he's breathing on his own, still in Critical Care, but a bit of improvment. Thanks again, and keep those prayers comng. Hick, keep us posted on your dad's surgery as well, and know our thoughts and prayers are with you as well.

Great news, Mike, glad your dad is doing better this morning, will keep the good thoughts coming for him.

Let's hope we get some good news about Hoff's dad this afternoon, too.

I don't wish aging/ailing parents on anyone. It's very difficult. I know that distance only makes it worse.

You are in my prayers.
