Oh man,

I just now read your story. I'm glad he's past the surgery.

Best wishes to a speedy recovery from here!

Still in my prayers!

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate your support and prayers.

He is kinda in a no change status right now. His heart is not very strong (considering he just had a huge surgery). They are giving him some medicine to keep his blood pressure stable. I think the plan is to slowly take away pressure meds and see how he does. He is still intubated. This is going to be a slow process. I am at the hospital from 8a to 10P EVERYDAY. :( I hope he feels better soon.

Thats good AK, We're here praying for him God bless.

Happy to hear news of your fathers progress. Even though he cannot respond be assured that your presence, talking to him and holding his hand or touching him will give him the motivation and strength he needs. It's very strong medicine!

Hey AK where is the hospital? I am sure myself and others would love to come be with you on this one.

Im free till tuesday then fee again friday. Unless you want this private thats understandable.

HEy blue, thanks for the thought. He is in such critical condition, I'm really avoiding too much guest visit. I don't know if you'll believe me or not, I have ONLY allowed my mom to come see him and that's it. I am telling everyone else to wait a little until he gets better. Me and my brother are usually sitting next to him the whole time on the corner WITHOUT being in the way of nurses and doctors. The reason is to create as less interruption as possible and let them focus on him more during these critical times. Thanks a lot though! :tup:

thats probably the best thing with all that flu bug crap going on, i hope he keeps getting better ak, stay strong.

Totally understandable and I would be the same way. Just wanted to offer some support. Hope all goes well for you and like I said before my prayers are with you.

Same as the others; still prayin' for him to keep fighting the good fight and pull through it.

glad to hear his doing better... il still pray for him ak.... :tup:

Will say a prayer for your dad.Stay strong and keep the faith man!

I really hope you don't mind a tiny bit of advice from a brand new member; cherish the time you have right this second and don't waste time being worried about tomorrow. I'd do anything to have just one more hour with my dad. I wish you the best AK.

Hey AK,

My parents did the same thing to us when my grandmother had her heart surgery. My thoughts are with you and your family, a couple of years ago my dad had life threatening medical problems so I'm feeling your stress and worries, I keep hope for you and your father.

Hey Ak I just read this thread! I hope you dad will get better soon. I will include him in my prayers. Take care man...

Prayers & thoughts to your Pop's, you & your Family.
