Update on my Dad:
He's a feisty old fart.
He might weigh 80 pounds soaking wet.
9 months ago, he weighed 175.
But he's in good spirits.
But he's getting frail.
He's still window shopping for pickup trucks.
This week it's Ford 2017 low miles.
He's now using a walker to help with balance, mobility.
He's asked me to go tell his sister that's he's dying.
But to be sure to tell her "NO Damn Drama at his funeral."
He will come back and haunt her.
And My younger siblings and I can see it.
Doctor's say when the body starts to shut down it won't be long.
But they have been wrong before.
But we know we're on borrowed time.

Prayers Mo. I think I like your dad - he must be right with his maker which is a good thing 💖 He also raised one heck of a daughter! (Maybe more but don't know the others.)

3 daughters, 1 son.
I'm the oldest, then my little brother, middle sister who lives in Texas, then youngest sister.
3 years between me and brother.
4 years between me and middle sister.
7 years between me and youngest sister.
Its funny because the grand kids follow in the same pattern.
And the great great kids follow the pattern pretty close.

Our prayers are with you MO. God Bless him for having this much fight at this time in his life.
 
Well it's my turn again.
Today my brother was at dialysis and his BP was 90/40 with a heart rate of 128.
Took him to ER and they couldn't get it under control.
The Cardiologist said they needed to shock his heart and see if that would get it corrected.
That did not go well. He had a full blown Code Blue. When I went to the room there was a nurse on the gurney doing CPR for over 5 minutes. The finally got a weak heartbeat with almost no pulse in his legs.
It does not look good for him.
They are doing a bunch of tests tonight to see if they can figure out why it happened. They suspect blood clots. Half of his heart is enlarged and not working very well.
He is in ICU. We won't know anything until tomorrow.
We are praying he lives but I'm not sure he will.
 
My turn again too! My brother is having pain and swelling at the surgery scar from his recent cancer surgery! He went to the doctor today, will send him for two scans! He was out of town when he had his tumor removed, docs here think they may not have gotten all the cancer! This started 18 yrs ago and there were "fingers" of cancer on many organs, we knew we would be here again!

@backlash Prayers for your family. I'm sorry to hear things aren't going well for your brother and family.
@Pearl that doesn't sound good but good they found out.

My sister's more surgery last week went very well and she is on the mend from constant pain from that but still has other complications.

Prayers for your sister! Pain makes everything else worse, hopefully her other issues can be resolved!
