Update......OT

Hi everyone.  Connie and Anita thanks for the phone calls, and Angela for the email Life is so busy with me I just don't have time...... My dad is still not doing good he is still in fargo.  They put a (Trech) in last tuesday did a surgery thursday to remove fluid from his lungs and transfered him to another hospital on friday.  That hospital sucks azzzzzz I am not comfortable with him being there yet but it is growing on me.  They told us sat that he is long term he could be in there for up to 6 months or more then moved to a rehab center after that.  I am still fighting with my brother I told him last week that he can no longer call me unless he treats me with respect.  I am still in the process of getting custody of my dad what a trip that has been.  My brother is still swearing at the Dr's and Nurses and i told them just to kick him out.  So we will see i guess.  Yikes......  Thats all I know for now Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers.........I will try to come on more I can't go back to Fargo until the 22nd I need to work so thats gonna suck but i do call everyday 3 times a day.......Take care and god bless everyone!!!!!!!   Marsh

Hey Marsha, what hospital in Fargo is he in?

Marsha,

You are doing a great job and I am certain that deep down your DAD knows you are there and watching out for him. That you love him. Nothing the stupid brother can do will change that fact. The hospital staff will only allow themselves to be verbally abused by someone for so long. I think eventually they will tell him to shut his yap. The staff does not need nor deserve to be harassed by your brother or anyone else.

Hang in there, Princess Nemi and I send you huge hugs,

Karen

I've said this many times these past few weeks.  And I've heard others say this as well.

We are stuck with family.  We have no choice in picking them.
Friends are those who we hold dear to our heart because we choose them.

I say that all of us should just hike up to Fargo and kick a little brother butt.  His actions are very childlike.  Maybe you can see if they have a day care at the hospital, and ask him to go and spend a few hours with the kids.

Marsha, I think of you often.  And I'm praying for you and your family.  Friday 11/7 was the 6th anniversary of my dad passing on.  It sucks!  Sending you lots of cyber hugs and prayers.

Sweet Marsha, I so sorry for you and cannot fathom what you're going through and sincerely pray for your father and especially for you to endure the distance. Thank heavens we can 'choose' our friends-On the brother issure, am adding that to prayers for your emotional strength and peace of mind.  Not always easy taking the high road, but in such a case, best not to react at all as that's what a powerless person seeks.  Sending oceans of love and genuine hugs galore hon, Patti
