Trish needs our prayers
 
Tkrik (aka, Trish) needs our prayers. Her dad went into the hospital yesterday with heart issues and they did surgery on him. They placed five stents into his arteries to prevent blockage. He was placed in ICU and was expected to come home today.

Last night he had a bad night. His pressure went really low and they will be keeping him. They are hoping it's a medication issue. He's also undergoing chemo on top of this. He's been through so much and I am sure it's hard on the whole family. He is trying to stay in good spirits by joking around with Trish and the family.

So please rally with me to say a few prayers that her dad will heal and be able to go home.

Trish, your dad will be in my prayers! :hug:

tkrik 02-23-2010 06:48 PM

Thank you all for the prayers! I too am hoping that he pulls through this.

I did tell him last night after they put the stents in . . .Was it really necessary to do this just to get out of chemo this week? He laughed and said that he just wanted an ambulance ride. He's never done that before.

Anyhow, he is still in ICU and will be spending another night there and no chemo tomorrow. He was relieved to hear that as he is so, so tired. He had just finished telling my mom and I that he didn't think he could manage the fatigue from the heart issues and the fatigue from the chemo, when the nurse came in and said the oncologist called and said no chemo tomorrow. I could see the relief on his face when he heard that.

Again, thank you for the prayers.:hug:

How are things today, Trish? Better, I hope. Keeping you and your family in my prayers. :hug:

tkrik 02-24-2010 12:59 PM

Thanks Everyone!:hug:

He won't be going home today but he will be moved out of the ICU (as of this morning). They want to get him up and walking to see how he does. If he does well, then maybe he can go home tomorrow. Quite honestly, I relieved to hear that as I know they couldn't get him up and about due to all the machines he is "attached" to. I told my mom such this morning. Phew!

hollym 02-24-2010 01:48 PM

Add my thoughts / prayers to all of the above. I do hope he will be up and about soon.

FinLady 02-24-2010 02:30 PM

Add my prayers for sure! :hug::hug:

sorry TK just noticed this, and I know from last summer how hard it is to have daddy in hospital hoping all is doing well there, sarah

tkrik 02-24-2010 09:12 PM

Your prayers are working. Thank you.:hug:

DDs and I went to see my dad this afternoon. He looked so much better and was acting more himself than yesterday. We had many good laughs today with him. Poor guy had to hold is ostomy site because we had him laughing so hard. He is still in ICU as the hospital is full and they don't have room for him on the floor. He needs to meet some criteria before they will let him go home and he is not quite there yet.

Hoping for a good day tomorrow as well.

tkrik 02-25-2010 03:31 PM

Great news! My dad is going home today. I don't know all the details but I am guessing he has been able to keep his pulse down. That is a good thing as this means repair to the nerve and heart is happening.

Again, thank you for all of your prayers. :hug::hug: He still has a long road ahead of him with his chemo and now rehab for his heart but things are looking far better than they did a few days ago.

Debbie D 02-25-2010 03:34 PM
