Dad's In The Hospital Again

Long story short:

Dad's in the hospital with a possible stroke. No one really knows yet. He was stable and sedated last night. My brother is supposed to go up there this morning and give everyone an update. Please keeps us in your prayers especially my Mom.

Thanks.

Chris,
My prayers go out to you and your family. I wish him a full recovery. What is your dad's name?

I hope everything is ok.

William. Everyone calls him Bill.

I hope he makes a speedy recovery. Having a family member in the hospital is hard. You and your family are in my prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family

I've prayed and will be praying for your father and all of you. Please let us know how he is doing when you can.

Praying for a speedy recovery for your Dad.

So he's off sedation but not awake yet. They're are going to take him to get an MRI as soon as there's an opening (this hospital is crazy busy). Right now they are thinking he had a seizure. But that's what they said last time and it ended up being a mini-stroke. We'll see what happens.

I have you and the rest of your family in my thoughts.

So the results are in and he had a seizure. We think he's not been taking his meds is the cause. So now we are pressing Mom to work with the insurance to hire an assisted living person to help out with things like that. We are not about to put him in a nursing home. We've had terrible experiences with them involving my grandparents. Anyways, he is awake and talking finally. He's gonna try and eat something at lunch.

I work in one. Try to avoid them at all costs. Just trust me.

Glad to hear that it sounds like he's stabilized for now. If he doesnt wanna eat i would at least try to have him drink an Ensure or something to get some calories into him. Keep us updated chris, you and your family are in our thoughts!

Keeping you and your family in my prayers.

Keeping your family in my prayers

Update: Dad in law is still in ICU, he had setback with his breathing today. Chris has been checking on him every day and I have been going to see his mom for a couple hours every day at least, except for today (he did that b/c I worked all day). I am going to see Dad tomorrow since I haven't had a chance to go see him myself yet. Hopefully he is doing better! :please:
