Surgery Needed

Am glad that this is getting taken care of for your dad and I sure hope they are all non cancerous lesions. I guess it is a good thing really that he don't remember all those things that are going on right now.

It seems like the most work is doing everything before the surgery, not the surgery itself or anything afterward. Are you getting help from the rest of your family for taking him where he needs to go? I hate for you to have to do everything by yourself when you are still sick yourself. I'm praying for you guys. : )

I can't help looking at the positive side of your dad not remembering anything from his surgery and being in the hospital with the doctor...At least it didn't him anymore anxious or worry too much. I hope all goes well. Your weekend Grandpa Bob maybe lousy but a lot of people in my country would tread places with you in a heartbeat just to be able to bring their sick for treatment. God bless to you and your family!

It is so amazing what can be done these days, I mean a few years ago those sorts of things would have struck fear in peoples hearts and treatments were hard and not like they are now. I cannot believe that he will be in and out the same day, its absolutely amazing.

Well I hope all goes well with the surgery, its good that its a same day thing and won't add much more stress on you and the family. Its probably good that he doesn't remember what happened, or about the surgery because if he knows then it will probably be hard to get him to go, if he's anything like my grandpa was, he was a rascal..lol. I'll be praying for him...

oh!! it's really hard when we are getting older, people are forgetful but it helps sometimes so that they don;t need to worry about what will happen next and what had happened before that. lol.. just hope that everything would be ok with that surgery.

Oh Dear I know it is not a Biggie but it is still an Op he needs Will he be ok ? And will this stop the Problem ? I really hope so Grandpa Bob and my thoughts are with you all I am sorry you did not have a good Weekend

What a sweet person your Dad is! He must be a pleasure to be with. Give him my warm regards, and I do hope his medical problems will be solved soon with the least inconvenience to him. Cheers and happy mylotting

So does that mean it's non cancerous? Then it turned out good if it's not. Hope you are feeling better today!

Hmmmm Wish Him and u all the best and sure hope things will go fine Take care

The pre-op work is WAY more aggrivating than the actual operation! Hope all works out well and will keep you in my thoughts. Oh yeah TAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF, if you don't you will end up ill!

Those memory lapses can be a blessing sometimes. Good to hear that it doesn't seem to be anything bad and he can get it done so quickly. I'm sure it'll be quite a stressful time for you to get all of that set up and getting him there, too. We'll keep praying for all of you!

Hi GRANDPA BOB, I am so pleased your dad is doing fine, just as well he can't remember anythig other wise he will be making a fuss and how is your cold has it gone and are you feeling better? I hope everything will be fine and you have a beeter week then your weekend has been. Take care. Tamara

I really would be worried if one member of my family would need surgery since I am such a worrying person xD. But I am glad you dad doesn't has something serious and that he is getting fine and is just better. Although I wouldn't like to go through something like that xD, I'd faint at the spot. Well I really don't know since I have never been in that situation. Actually I think the only reason I went to the hospital was to check my uncles new baby. Yeah no surgeries or seriouse stuff xD. I didn't saw my uncle's wife give birth, so that been a surgery doesn't count for me xD, I just went to check out the baby and how his wife was doing =D.

Sorry to hear that your dad has to have surgery,I hope everything turns out ok for your dad.

Hope the surgery went ok, Grandpa Bob. I know I'm late on this but trying my best to catch up and get back into things here in mylot.

Did they give dad any type of sedation? If they gave him something called Versed then that has an amnesiac in it and it makes people forget the procedure all together.

Oh good, so it wasn't more serious? Yes it sounds stressful, but I am glad it wasn't as bad as you first thought..:)

I'm glad it's going to be a rather simple surgery. I hope he makes a quick recovery. I'm sorry to hear he can't remember much. I know it's sad most of the time.

this is good news. you will recover, too !
