Please pray for my dad GreenLantern. He's headed to the hospital again

[GreenPartyVoter]

What a "Job" year he is having. :(

This will be the third attempt to get the suture site from the original surgery to stay closed, his diabetes is giving him trouble, and it looks like he may have pneumonia.

And no, I have not been there this last week to help take care of him. He has been worried that his cough is contagious and doesn't want the kids near it. And of course all of this is exacerbated by the fact that mom isn't there to take care of him either.

*frustrated and sad*

[flamingyouth]

1. Oh no, Jen

I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope all goes well. Keeping you guys in my thoughts. :hug:

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. Thanks. *hugs back* What a crappy year, eh?

[flamingyouth]

3. Yeah, you all have really been through it

It seems like struggles do come in groups like this. It would be nice if things would let up for you. :hug:

[GreenPartyVoter]

4. Seriously, from your mouth to God's ear. My Nana (dad's mom) will

be home from the south in 2 weeks. He has to be better before then because short of tying her down we won't be able to keep her from taking care of him. And she's in no great shape herself! :P (Actually, I think my uncle sat on her when she found out my mom died so that she wouldn't just hop on a plane and come home.)

18. Thanks :^)

[joeybee12]

8. He's in my thoughts and good wishes...

...please keep us updated as to his progress,

[GreenPartyVoter]

19. Well, he's been admitted to get the fever sorted out and to see if there

is an infection at the surgery site.

No word yet whether or not he has pneumonia or not.

[Left Is Write]

9. I'm sorry, GPV.

I'll keep him in my thoughts.

[Zuni]

10. ((((((prayers))))))

I hope everything will be OK.

[GreenPartyVoter]

20. Thanks, Zuni

[MissMillie]

11. GPV, I'm praying for your dad

And for you too.

[GreenPartyVoter]

21. I appreciate it. I'm not in such bad shape as dad but my nerves

are definitely shot. :(

[miss_kitty]

12. I am so sorry

I hope he is on the mend and back at home soon.

[GreenPartyVoter]

22. I hope so too, but this is the third time in a month, so soon seems to

be out of the question now for getting better.

[Andy_Stephenson]

13. Praying for his quick recovery here.

I have added him to my prayer list...and asked my mom to do the same.

[GreenPartyVoter]

23. Thanks, Andy. And you are on ours. *hugs*

[bigwillq]

14. ((((((GOOD VIBES)))))

Get well soon GreenLantern. Hope all goes well. You'll be in my thoughts as well as you GPV!:hug:

[GreenPartyVoter]

24. Thank you. I will pass those vibes on. :^)

[Misunderestimator]

15. Sending lots of good thoughts and energy your way.

:hug:

[GreenPartyVoter]

25. Much appreciated. We can use all the positive energy we can get.

[xmas74]

16. You are in my thoughts.

I come from a family full of diabetics. I bet the suture site is giving him probs. Wound care is never pretty.
I hope for his sake that he does not have pneumonia and that the site clears up just fine.
Just try to keep your head up high and think positive thoughts!:hug:

[GreenPartyVoter]

26. Thanks so much. His diabetes is marginal, but enough that I think it

may well be interfering with his healing at this point.

[xmas74]

32. I'll keep you in my thoughts.

Even marginal I know that it can wreck havoc sometimes.

[WI_DEM]

17. You got it

I wish him a successful procedure this time and that he will be on the road to recovery.

[GreenPartyVoter]

27. Thank you. He needs to get better. This is just more than he

should have to deal with right now.

[gizmo1979]

28. goodluck!

May good fortune smile down upon you.

[GreenPartyVoter]

30. Thanks

[ProfessorGAC]

29. Not Again!

Wow! You're right, he's had quite a tough time. Best wishes.

[GreenPartyVoter]

31. Yup. Again. Poor dad. Thanks for the well-wishes. I will pass them on.

[auntAgonist]

33. I'll keep you and your dad in my thoughts

Jen. I hope he recovers quickly! You take care of yourself too!

[TBreeze]

34. So Sorry

I'll keep him and you in my prayers. :hug:

[GreenPartyVoter]

37. Thank you very much.

[elshiva]

35. Praying for you and your dad!

Blessings! :hug: PM me, if you want to talk.

[GreenPartyVoter]

38. Thanks, on both counts. :^)

[elshiva]

58. You are welcome!

:hug:

[gardenista]

39. You and your dad are in my prayers.

This has been such a hard year for you both. So sorry to hear about his latest setback.

You are a good daughter, your dad is blessed to have you.

[GreenPartyVoter]

45. Thank you so much. I am not feeling like a good daughter these days, but

I know it was his choice to keep the kids and me out of the picture until his pneumonia or whatever it might be is no longer contagious. (Which goes to show what a great dad and Boppy he is, to put us first even though he is completely miserable.)

[auntAgonist]

56. This made me sad ... Don't do that to yourself! !

I think YOU are being a good daughter. It sounds like your parents raised a very caring and loving woman. You obviously love your father and I'm sure he knows this. It's been a rough year for you and I understand your frustration and worry. You ARE a good daughter, Your Father is a good man, HE knows it's important for you to be at home looking after family.

I trust your father will gain strength and get better. Continue to be the good daughter your are. Call him, hold him up in your thoughts and prayers. Send him good Karma and we'll do the same.

always.

kesha.

57. Im right there with you

My mother broke her hip this week....90 yrs. old and shipping her
out of the hospital after 5 days. Im wrecked that I cant bring her
home this time. Nursing home for a few weeks.
Our healthcare system cant get any worse.
Will keep you in my prayers. These older people really suffer without the help of family members.
