A long weekend
Well, in a nut shell my weekend has been really long! On Sunday Morning I stayed home from church because of a really bad headache! Around 12:30 I got a text message from Ruth telling me that my dad had gone to ER! I immediately tried to call my mom, but got no answer so I called my brother and he had no idea what was going on! So I called Pomona Valley Hospital and my dad was in the emergency room there! So I texted James and told him and he came home from church right away! We proceeded to pack some stuff up so we could stay overnight and headed up to Pomona! We got there around 1:30 and he had been in the ER since 8:00! Around 3:00 they admitted them and moved him up to a room! They diagnosed him with diverticulosis and started treating him with antibiotics and morphine for the pain! His blood pressure was really high also so they were giving him potassium for that! We spent the afternoon there with my dad and then headed to church! After church we brought my mom food and then headed to the Harvey’s for some food and games! We got home around 9:30 and got ready for bed!
Monday morning around 8:00 my mom headed back to the hospital to spend time with dad! Ruth came over and we headed that direction around 10:00! James meet us there because we had to run an errand before we went to see them! Ruth and I were heading out to Ontario Mills to purchase some shoes and James decided to stay at the hospital with my parents! Around 1:00 James and Tim came and picked me up from the dorm and we went to get food for all of us! We got back to the hospital and Tim, Mom, and James decided to play Phase 10! They played until 4:00 when Tim had to leave to go to work! James and I left around 4:30 to go and get my allergy shots and then we headed back to the house to pack up all our stuff! We then went to the hospital to gather the stuff we left there! We left the hospital around 6:00 and headed home! We got home and went to Matt’s house for a Bible Study and then went home and went to bed. Around 10:45 I got a text message from Tim telling me that my dad was being discharged! I asked him to have Mom call me when they got home and so I got a phone call around 12:00!
This morning I took James to work at 6:30 and went home to get a little more sleep before I headed up to see my parents! I got there around 9:30 and have been hanging out ever since! My dad is doing much better and I have enjoyed being able to spend time with him! Thanks for all the prayers and thoughts! We really appreciate them!
