  2. A hug to you and to your mom and of course of BIG KISS to your dad. I hope that he is feeling better tonight when you get there. and you make sure that you take care of yourself. Listen to MAMA TERRI!!! you hear!

  3. Y'all are the greatest. I have already called a 'classmate' and asked her to pick up an extra set of whatever papers are distributed in language class tonight; I'm not going. Something had to give !

  6. One Popoki - I hope they've got your dad's pain meds sorted out. I'm sure he'll feel much better once he's home! Are things still on track for Friday?

  7. Extra prayers coming your way from Texas, One Popoki. Take time for yourself because it's hard to be a help to others when frazzled and tired.

  10. I'm about to start a new thread One Popoki - how's your Dad?

  11. Ugh... back sliding. Back to NPO after one day of clear liquids. Not keeping anything down. Pathology report showed not all the diverticulosis was removed. Hmmm... don't know yet what that means in terms of further surgery. He is so weak and tired... it's so hard to watch him. I left the hospital with a migraine last night. Too much to deal with sometimes... but thankfully this site is helping me cope.

  12. Oh, I'm so sorry, that's really tough. Hope your head's better today, I can sympahise on the migraine front. My head's killing again too, and my neck is so stiff and sore...stress, all stress. Shall we run away? Pick a destination, I'll head to the airport and meet you there. I can feel my credit card twitching already...xx

  15. Again... thanks to all of you. I'm hanging in, Mom's dealing as best she can.

  16. OP,

    Chee, bummahs, seestah, when it come stay rain, it come stay Nawiliwili-style, no? (haole translation: "when it rains it pours.")

    I'm keeping you and your parents in my prayers. I'll have to find MCW's new thread and let her know her mum's on my prayer list too.

    Meanwhile, grab one Primo an' keek yo' feet up. You deserve it!

  17. One Popoki and MCW: If you find the time and have the means to do so, I recommend getting a full body massage to help relieve the headache pain and distress. Even a temporary respite might help. {{{hugs}}} and continued prayers for both of you.

  18. That is on the schedule for Wed.... as a requirement by my chiropractor. Hopefully there will be some relaxation as well as therapy in the massage ! ;)

  19. OP.
    So sorry about your dad. It really is tough to be a bystander and feel so helpless not being able to help. Some things you have to let go and let God or whomever do his/her work.
    Giving you a long and comforting hug.
    You and your family are in my thoughts, and am sending positive and healing energy your way.
    Hugs and purrs. (I learned that from Lynn).

  20. OP, I am really sorry that there is more to deal with regarding your father. Spend as much time with him as you can and hopefully with your strength and support he will get better. Sending positive thoughts, healing light and prayers to you as well as hugs and purrs.

  21. Thanks for all the prayers and positive light/energy. Dad looked pretty good yesterday. Still in hospital with no anticipated release date. He tires very easily and still has all nourishment through IV's... We'll see what the end of the day brings.

  22. SMOOOOCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHH to dad!! Hugs to you, OP and to your mom too!

  23. Hey One Popoki, glad to hear things are looking a little better. Hope for some more good news when you see him later xx

  25. Latest update on Dad.... he's not doing so well. NG tube back in, and had a 2nd drain put in his stomach. There is a possibility of a 2nd surgery... all hinging on how well the NG tube works, how well the new drain works and if the infection can be beat back with antibiotics. For now it's a waiting game... with a minimum of 2 more weeks in the hospital.

    I'm exhausted. Man friend was there for me this weekend.. and probably one of the reasons he's still around is I don't have the energy to discuss 'our relationship' when I'm holdindg my mom together. He does have big strong arms that hold me when I fall apart.

  26. Sending you and your family more prayers, healing thoughts and hugs. Glad the Manfriend was there for you this weekend. Maybe he is on the road to redeeming himself and stepping up when he should.
