Dad's in the hospital again :(

[protege]

I just found out that my dad's in the hospital again. Sometime this morning, my mother found him passed out, and called an ambulance. Apparently, he was getting ready for class, and had come in from moving his car...and mom found him on the floor They're running tests, and he's been there all day

Thanks. I appreciate the thoughts. I'm a bit worried--he seemed fine when I talked to him on Tuesday

Thanks again. Dad's still in the hospital. More tests, and lots of uncertainty. I do know that one of his heart valves has a slight leak. However, his cardiologist (who I'd like to strangle...for making my mother wait 4 hours on Saturday), doesn't seem to think that it's serious. Hopefully, he'll be coming home today, but won't be back to work for awhile...and will be on a restricted diet.

*more hugs* because I don't know what else to say.

He's hoooooooooome!

Yep, dad came home last night. He's still a bit tired, but at least we know more about what happened. He has low blood pressure. That, plus the leaking valve in his heart, and sitting on his ass all the time...didn't help either. But, at least he's home and will be going back to work soon. He's on a restricted diet, and has to take it easy this week.
