The Neuro called my dad last night, he has been having mini-strokes (this is something my mother was keeping from me) for over a year now and it has damaged the vessels that go to the part of the brain that drives the balance which is causing the Vertigo. There is nothing that can be done except to try to control the mini-strokes, blood pressure and diabetes. The Neuro told him it will probably never improves which didn't sit well with my dad.

Please continue with prayers for him to get through these next couple of weeks as this settles in. I am going to go tomorrow and spend some time with him and get him a rollator at the local church lending closet. The neuro suggested he get one for walking outside. He of course says he doesn't want one but I am going to get it so he has it there just incase.

Thank you for your support....

thanks for the update, butt...

maybe another view that your dad can look at is that while they can't heal him, it would be great if they can "stall" it...

hopefully he will not lose faith...it's easy whenever we're told, "this is the best we can do" when that is NOT what we want to hear....

hugs, love, and prayer to you and your family...
