Yesterday, I received a call about my stepdad. He’s currently in the hospital. His organs are failing him. His kidneys at this time are only working at four percent. They’ve found a blockage, urinary tract, colon-no one seemed to be able to tell me where. Tomorrow he’s having surgery. None of this makes sense to me if his innards are declining rapidly.
I will be reading everyone I follow, however, I may not comment. Apologies, but I will be reading your stuff. Your sense of humor will get me through this as I seem to have lost mine somewhere for the moment.
Right now, I feel like my whole world has been shattered. Literally. He was the one who raised me, and my mom, of course. But he’s always been special to me. He’s got the patience of a saint. Really.
Tonight he told me, he’s not sure he’ll make it out of the hospital alive. So that’s where I’m at right now bloggy friends. I’m not in a happy place.
Have a great week!!!!

ReplyDelete@Siv and Russo: Thank you soooo much. And to all, we still don't know what the medical mystery is, however, there could be a logical reason for that. My brother, sister, and me feel left in the dark. That's all I'll say for now.

ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear this, Shelly. I just read this today. I lost my father 11 years ago. Similar thing.
ReplyDeleteI'll be thinking about you. Hang in there. I did leave a mess. on facebook, but htat was before I saw this, so if you don't respond, I'll know why.
Okay. Today I'm in bed with a migraine. I can finally see straight and the nausea has past. My stepdad is out of critical condition. Kidney infection and they found a blood clot in his leg. Wow! All this had us believing he was on his death bed. Not to mention, the doctors scare the crap out of you. They never tell you anything positive. Just gloom and doom.
ReplyDeleteShelly, just let yourself recover, it's a big scare. Looks like you have a lot of bloggy love out there - hope your step-dad is feeling much better soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you much, Charmaine.
