Dad is back in the hospital. His dr took him off of mexalatine because it was causing a terrible rash. That med was working with his defibilator. Well long story short......Thurs night, he got shocked 10 times before the ambulance could get him to the hospital. He stayed in icu until day before yesterday. Now he is on the intermediate care floor. He is stable but not out of the woods.

Girls, I am facing the reality that I may not have my wonderful Dad much longer. He has been having these problems for so many years. But since July, it has gotten a hundred times worse than usual. We have been told and have known in our hearts that he is in the last stages of heart and kidney failure. He is an awesome Dad! It will break my heart to let him go, but I can't stand to see him suffer anymore! He said last night that if he couldn't walk or get a glass of water that he wanted to go be with Jesus! Talk about the tears flowing! Please say prayers for him and my Mom! She will be lost without him. They have been married 53 years. This is sooo sad!
