Dad in hospital.

Last night 2/7/10, my Dad was admitted to the hospital for emergency surgery.

Abdominal aneurism.

Surgery was successful.
Dad in ICU.

But the next few days will tell if he makes it.

Right there with you, in spirit, Bos! Good thoughts and best wishes for your Dad!

I’m sorry to hear about your dad. I’ll be thinking about you; hang in there.

Hugs and (virtual) chocolate, Bosda. Best wishes.

This happened to a friend’s dad, and he was quite a while getting over it. Apparently it is pretty tough on a person. Friend’s dad is, though, now recovered, and has his normal life back. I hope yours does well with it, too.

Very sorry to hear the news. Here’s hoping for a quick recovery.

I’m so sorry to read this, Bosda. Good thoughts headed your way.

Sending out good thoughts. My old boss had the same surgery a few years back - he recovered fully.

No word, but I think they’d call if he died.

Bosda your dad and you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Still in critical condition.
I saw him for a few minutes, he was sedated, & could not speak.

He may have lucked out in a bad sit.

I’ve got my fingers crossed.

Wishing your dad the best of luck.

Good luck to both you and your dad. I hope he gets better quickly.

Many hopes to your dad for a speedy recovery.

I’m so sorry Bosda. Sending prayers your way.

No change, except that he was semi-conscious when I was there.

Conflicting messages were given me & my sister on how much BP medication he has been given.

Healing thoughts heading your dad’s way.

I don’t have much to say but maybe this:

When my mother was in a similar situation, I tried to keep her from being bored as much as she was consious. I didn’t spin pltes on sticks or anything, but I tried my best to keep her motivated to get better to get out. I don’t know if that might help your dad or if he even needs that, but it helped my mom pull out of the ICU with congestive heart failure + leaky circulatory system mumbojumbomedicalmystery stuff.

I hope the best for you and the fam, Bosda.

Good luck, Bosda.
