Here We Go Again....

Hi Paula! My dad came home yesterday although he felt awful but today he's feeling better. He said he got a good nights rest which is what mom and I thought all along that he needed. When in the hospital, as you know, people don't get much rest there because of being woken up for this and that. Anyway, dad had the surgery on his thumb so that's done and over with however, the tests that they did on Friday won't be in till tomorrow so we don't know yet what's wrong or causing him to cough so much. Oreo sent me a link on life alert and I don't think I'll go that route after all but I don't know anything else but hope to find something. We had another close call.... mom & dads renter has 4 sweet cats, one mom loves so much, Black Beauty, she got in moms car when I was unloading my things and we didn't know it and was there all night and most of the day! Hubby came up to bring a few things and took a bag out to mom's car and he heard a meow and found her under the seat and under a plastic bag limp and soak and wet. He grabbed her and flew in the house screaming. I got a hand towel wet it with cold water and put it on her hoping to cool her down in a hurry but not too fast. I got some water in her through a syringe. By the time we left for the hospital, she was doing better. Mom gave her some can food and she ate very slowly thank heavens. Thank God she survived!!!! She didn't have much longer when hubby found her. As for my cross stitch, I'm finished with the stitching and am now working on the back stitching which is basically the outlining of everything in the picture. I should be finished in the next two or three days if nothing else grabs my attention. As for my cat, he's doing much much better now. He's walking on all fours once again! YEAH! lol

I so relieved you saved Black Beauty's life, that was a close call! Glad your cat is doing better as well....

ZOOM, ZOOM w/the new truck. hugs.

I wish it were a temporary thing but this has been going on for years now. If it's not my mom it's my dad, and if it's not my dad, it's my mom. Both are getting up in age and both have lots of health problems so it's a constant battle. I'm the only family member nearby so it all falls on mine and my husbands shoulders. It's a bit much to bear but we're doing it.

You are VERY right princejhaizee!! Amen to that!! Jesus Christ is Lord! He is our redeemer, our helper, and our everything!! My faith is very strong which will NOT be deterred! May God Bless You Too!!

I'm sitting on my parents front porch catching a breather moment I'm so tired ams feel like I've been put through the mill again. WHEW! Mom told me that dad stopped taking the blood thinner yesterday so his surgery won't happen till Saturday at the soonest however, they're running tests to find the cause of his blackouts. Thank you for your prayers! I'm doing the same for you!

Thank you yeyezz! He's home now and feeling better although we don't know what his problem is. Hopefully we'll know more tomorrow. Thanks!
