Prayers for my dad

Lots of hugs & prayers Pam.

They placed his permanent feeding tube on Friday. They said he could transfer to skilled nursing after 48-72 hours. Still rarely recognizes anyone. I hope to try to talk with him on the phone this week.

Has he gotten moved yet, Pam? When will you be able to go back and see him?

[pamcook]

My brother went to visit today. No more back brace (but he didn’t ask why) and they plan to move him tomorrow. I’m not sure when we can get over there. It’s about a 9 hour drive each way so it’s not a quick visit.

Pam, I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. My prayers go out to him and especially to you.

How is your Dad doing Pam? Has he been moved? As you know, distance from family can be a real bugger at times. Hope you get answers soon.

He was supposed to move today. Waiting to hear from my brother...

More coming your way.

Hugs and prayers!

Hope you're able to get some current info from your brother soon. It's tough enough worrying about mom or dad... but to not have the info you need... makes it more crazy

[troublesmom]

Lots of hugs! I know very well how it is when you live far from where you want to be.

[pamcook]

You all are the best.

Dad is regaining some of his swallowing! He’s also speaking a bit more coherently. I feel like the stimulation there has to be good for him. It would be great if he could get rid of the feeding tube.

Wow, that is fantastic! Keeping my best thoughts for all of you.

Good news Pam! Hope he continues to improve.
