Well, I'm back again, actually I was back Friday and had planned to go back down Saturday, but my plans were quickly changed!
You see, wa (a buddy and myself), went down Friday, with a Uhual trailer, to load up some furniture and planned to return, put the furniture in the room and turn the trailer in that evening. We had come back, left the trailer at my house, gone to Fort Smith, went to Alltel and got the phone numbers temporarily suspended Got to pay the basic rate each month til contract runs out and will end up adding a line to MY Alltel account, for my Dad.
Cut off ALL their phones (and my Dad's, that they have). Fill up the gas tank on my van, called my Dad, to touch base with him (had a notion I needed to). He sounded upset and told me he had a paper that I needed to read. Yeah, After I had left the hospital (n our way back)
SHE (Skank) had gone there, stuck her Goofus head in the room and simply said "Hi" and left. She was just verifying that my Sas was there s he could be served about the "Lawsuit for Guardianship"!
So, I had to call to see if Karla's worker could get her home and that was no problem. I needed to get some things from WalMart for them at the house and Karla's worker took care of that too!
So, with that taken care of, I quickly headed back down to the hospital. Got there and found that Dad was indeed served with the papers on the Guardianship Lawsuit.
Later that night, my Dad was taken for some CT scans, heart started racing and the Doctor ordered that he be taken to ICU. Late that night, after the Doctor had checked the scans over, I was told that my Dad had an anurism in the stomach area, that was in a bad place. He had been passing a little blood and it seems to be coming from the anurism.
Next thing I know, I'm told that Dad and I need to talk about what measures, if any, will be taken, when the anurism burst.
I have to say, I didn't handle that too well. At least I held my own in front of Dad and the other folks in the ICU. That was a VERY long night.
Dad made it though okay. He seems to accept things pretty well though. They are working to lower his blood pressure and keep his oxygen levels up. Also, using a "thickener" in his drinks, to help ensure that the fluids go into his stomach and not into his lungs. He said it doesn't seem to change the taste. He still has the possibility of the anurism bursting, but everything else is going well enough that the Doctor might release him to me tomorrow (Wednesday). Now come some more bumps in the road. The "Golden Years Village" Retirement Home has TWO things that a resident must be able to accomplish. They must be able to go to the bathroom by themselves and be able to get out of the building in 3 minutes.
Well, before July 27th, he could do those things. Now, he's going to have to work up to it. Also, I had to go the see our lawyer today and pay for past services along with paying his "Retainer" for this "Episode" that Skank is putting Dad (and us) through. I am SO tired, it's a good thing I don't have a gun!!!!!!!!
You might think that that's not my usual way of thinking, and you are right. I am just so sick and tired of the way that they have been
Jerking my Dad Around and all this has had an effect on my Wife, My Daughter, James (the young man we work with) and ME!!!!
If you will, Pray for my Dad and Pray that I don't do something stupid!
I've got some more (not bad stuff though), but I need a break and just need to back off and settle down some, you know?
