My father has been sick the last few days. He's been weezing and short of breath on top of common cold/flu symtoms.. well he finially went to the doc today, only to be told to get his rear end up to the ER.. they are now keeping him until farther notice. His' Oxygen is low and he's been running a fever, they took xrays and a cat scan. We don't know much but...... My mom went out and asked for some crakers or something for him since he hasn't ate all day and it's now after 5pm he's getting the shakes.. Well they told her they can't allow him to eat just yet due to looking for blood in his chest or lungs not sure exactally... (mom's not a good repeater...) so they know something is up and have yet to inform us.. I'm the baby of 6 kids.. They won't allow more then 2 people in the room.. it sucks cuz my 2 borthers and myself and my mom were all in there then my brother in law showed and then my uncle (whom does not bother AT ALL) with my father or anyone.. My dad was raised in a forster home, his real family doesn't bother one bit but he found out and showed up.. (nothing wrong just weird) cuz I'm outside on the phone and he's asking me if I'm Gundy's daughter (well said my last name) I'm like yea who are you? Sad when I don't even know my own uncle I saw him like once in my 25 yrs on earth..
ANYWAY.. my dad's on oxygen and has to wear the mask thing for an hour every soo often.. they took tons of blood and now he's waiting to be admited to a regular room. Been in the er since 1230pm and after 5 still in an er room.. crazyness.. but glad he deiceded to stay he wasn't going to. my one bro and i talked him into it.. he's stubbarn.. 65 yrs old hardly ever at the docs.. who knows what is wrong...

Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.. I didn't know where else to turn too..
Thank you ladies....

thank you..... they told us he has a blood clot in his lungs, and still has low oxygen but is ok cuz of being hooked up.... he gets a breathing treatment every 4 hours. And got a blood thiner pill and a shot in the belly for the clot... Will be going up to see him in 2 hrs visiting only starts at 11am..
thank you for the prayers :-)

thank you for prayers and replying.. he's been moved onto a floor in his room. Today they took off his iv's and he's been breathing on his own, been going through tons of treatments.. Will be coming home with two different kinds of inhaulers (better then oxygen)... They found 2 starting stages of blood clots one in each lung. They've been giving him blood thinners, along with the other meds..

they say probally Wednesday for coming home. So we're praying he can be home for Thanksgiving.

thank you again. I will keep ya's updated..
it is overwhelming just the thought of someone especially a father being in the hospital. He hasn't ever been in a hospital for anything, he doesn't go to the doctors or anything like that... (goes to show why we had no clue about this but very lucky and happy they found it now rather then later..) they are the starting stages so it could be worse...

thanks again

Glad to hear the good news. Let him know he will not be alone in his quest to quit smoking. i am just glad they caught the clots before they became a real danger. Will continue to pray for him, and for you also.

he's HOME!!!!!!!! :-D!!!  on the patch for the help of quiting smoking.. will be getting a fake cig soon to ease the urges that are left that the patch doesn't cover.. This is a great idea to help him control the urges.. he's on 2 differnet inhalers and one alot of meds.. the bill was not pretty at all..
I always said everything happens for a reason.. Well I'm thinking now, he got money from his 401K last month cuz we were looking into moving  (out of state) and We didn't move when we hoped and my parents will be moving in April instead.. But here he is with a decent amount of money not being used just yet and then all this happens..
GO FIGURE RIGHT?

well Just very happy and SOO THANKFUL for him this thanksgiving!!
thank you for all your prayers and thoughts!! means alot to me..

Nova--if you smoke and want or are trying to quit check out litecigusa.net (www) in front.. it's a guy that has this business based in PA and has ecigs.. FI got one and he was smoking a pack a day.. he's now at a pack a week.. this helps soo much!! (I told him he can't get more then a pack a week eheh)..
