Glad to see he's pulling through. You have all our support and best wishes.

Thanks guys!
 
They moved him from Surgical Intensive Care Unit to regular floor. He is doing ok. Still very weak and unable to walk. They are doing physical therapy to bring back his strength. Thanks everyone for your prayers. :tup:

I'm still driving back and forth everyday. I am very happy to say the Z was there EVERYDAY when I needed it. The Z drove like soldier. This last one month I accumulated a lot miles on the Z. Not a single issue or problem. :tup:

Thanks to all of your prayers, he was doing very well today morning. They turned the vent down and he was able to breathe on his own pretty good. So, they cancelled the trach tube and simply extubated him! He is still on oxygen , but it's a lot better than breathing with tube down the throat. Now, he just have to maintain this progress :excited:

Great news, same situation my Dad went through. He'll slowly get stronger. It took my Dad months to get to where he had some energy and life back in him. Now he's great. Hang tough, it will slowly improve, just takes time :tup:

im very happy for you and your father, ak. keep us updated from time to time.

BanningZ 10-28-2009 04:43 AM

Keep us updated. Thanks AK. We're all here for you.

j.arnaldo 10-28-2009 01:30 PM

My prayers also are with him.

AK,

I just found this post and I want to say it's good to hear that your "pops" is on the up-and-up and that you were steadfast in your support and care...

I went to my Sister-in-law's father's funeral today and it certainly was a sobering and somber time... These things always make us hold up the mirror to ourselves and force us to see who we really are, at our most vulnerable moments.

Sometimes we pass with flying colors and are the epitome of strength and support..., other times it's more than we can bear, and we become the one who needs rescuing. Sometimes it even falls somewhere in-between, and we have a momentary lapse only to return stronger and more determined...

My thoughts are with you and your father.

Pushing_Tin 11-01-2009 02:29 AM

Haven't been on much the past month. Hope all is well with your and yours.

j.arnaldo 11-01-2009 06:49 AM

Sobering is just the right word cmmonte. I suffered a heart attack back in 2000, and THAT was a sobering experience that helped me assess my existence in the correct perspective; I truly found out how frail we really are. My relationship with Jesus has improved much, afterwards, needless to say! When I go---for I WILL have to go one of these days!---I want to go with Him, and not with Satan. And that's a fact. Still praying for your dad, AK. Tell him your "Z Family" keeps trusting God will heal him!

Trips 11-01-2009 09:13 AM

Ak that is great news will continue to pray for your Dad till he's back Home and we hear his back to his normal self, thanks for keeping us updated all this time. Peace and god bless

This is absolutely great news to hear AK! I'm very happy to hear that he is making this kind of progress! All the best to you, your father, and the rest of you family.

He is finally at home
 
Thanks everyone for your prayers. Without your prayers, this would not have been possible. I brought him home on Monday evening. Me and my brother are watching him VERY closely because of all the medicine he is taking. He can slowly walk, talk and remembers everything. He is slowly regaining strength. His appetite and sleep are coming back slowly.

I have been taking him to multiple doctors office EVERYDAY. He also needs labs done EVERYday. Why? because he is on couple of different blood thinners. They need to make sure his blood doesn't get too thin. One can die from bleeding from brain if the blood is too thin. Also, if the blood is too thick, then heart has to work extra hard to pump the blood which is bad. There are RN's that comes to house twice a week to check on him and give him physical therapy.

It's amazing how far modern medicine has advanced. Two weeks ago, surgeon told me that he may NOT make it out from the heart surgery because how critical his condition was. Today, he is walking, talking , eating and remembers everything (everyone)! Simply amazing.

Thanks everyone for your support! :tup:
