I put it off as long as I could: I need vibes

I have been through this so much with my family. If you need anyone to talk to, you can pm me. I may not be the best person to give advice right now because of what has happened to my dad but I will listen.

A little late, but mega for your dad!

Sending you and your family lots of prayers

I hope your dad pulls through like a champ and recovers fully.

My father has been through some pacemaker issues, too, and a six-way bypass to boot -- I so understand how scary it is for you. I've got your dad in my thoughts, and healing light is pouring down around him.

All of whatever , everybody is saying X ten! Just remember to always
stay positive, no matter what. I'm adding ya'll to my prayer list now!!
Be strong and get some rest, you'll need it!

Sending dad lots of mega healing

hope everything works out good for your dad and no complications

Sending many vibes for an excellent recovery.

He is in my thoughts and prayers.

I hope your dad is doing better today.
When my FIL was living he always had his bottle of nitro pills with him and instructions on what to do if he started feeling poorly.
Vibes to you and your family.

Many vibes and prayers for your Dad

thank you everyone for your prayers. today is his birthday.

I'm hoping he'll be able to go home today. But everything is a 'big secret' in hospitals. everyone claims to know something but not enough to actually answer any questions.

Your dad is in my thoughts and prayers.

Lifting up prayers for your dad. Happy birthday to your dad!!

Sending lots of to your Dad. Going home would be a splendid birthday present, I expect.

Many Happy Returns to him

Hi everyone here's an update

The fluid and bleed around his heart is from congestive heart failure. The doctors are trying to figure out exactly what caused it. They are doing a heart catheterization today. They are concerned that by-pass surgery he had at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston isn't working.

I really in my heart think that nothing is going to be the same from this point on if you know what I mean. He was just supposed to have a routine procedure for his pacemaker last Tuesday and it's just been complication after complication after complication. Nothing is ever uplifting and in reading about all the problems my dad has, he's definitely not well.

If he does manage to go home soon - there's NO WAY they can continue to live in their house without reconfiguring it so he doesn't have to walk far. He is a stubborn man and I think that no matter what the doctor's say he has to do to feel any better - he won't do it.

Like the day he was let go home, before all these complications arose: he had a hot dog and an ice cream for lunch and was frickin' proud of it.

Oh, dear! Methinks you are going to have your hands full. Sending lots of good recovery for your Dad, and stay sane and strong for you.
