My father is in ICU
11 years ago
So ill start here...well anywhere to be exact.
Yesterday morning. My father had trouble getting up, he slipped off his bed when he was sleeping and his leg fell asleep, so I helped him onto the bed and he started to have problems breathing, he even needed me to push him onto his back to just breathe...then he told me to call 911. This the first time I ever had to do this...to call an ambulance for my father. EMT's came by to pick him up, I was a bit shaken and didn't know what was happening. An officer came in and asked if I was okay, told him "yeah just... Never had this happen before.." But he assured me he will be okay, and to call if anything else happens in the future. So they put him on a stretcher and my dad said he'll call me once he gets comfortable at the hospital.
This shook me well enough...my honey b
clemikou offered to come over for thr day. So she did. Since we both didnt get much sleep we decided to get some rest together till i get a call. Then i was awoken by a knock, opened the door and it was my grandmother. Surprised to see her i asked what was going on, she told me my dad is now in ICU with a breathing tube down his throat....a bit startled I told them where hes at, they told me if i was coming of course I was. They left first, me and Clemi put on our coats and she drove me out to see my dad. When i get there...its not a fun site...to see your father laying down with the breathing tube...i never seen him like that... Later my aunt came up, i havent seen her in years, and my grandma came in just about, surprised to see me and Clemi get there first. The nurse came in later, telling me what was happening, apparently he skipped dialysis Friday, and possibly Wednesday for something I dont know, and his potassium level was high, part of reason for his paralysis. But none the less...hes starting to recover, I saw the moniter his blood is fine, heart normal, hes resting comfortably.
But what also got me worried was my financial situation. My car had fumes, no food in the house and I had only 3 bucks in cash. My dads getting his sociel security check and disability tomorrow, but I dont have access to his account, leaving me a bit stuck. Generosity finds its way wether I like it or not heh...my aunt gave me 20 for gas... Then my honey b took me to the store, for just enough food till tomorrow or thursday. I...I would be lost without my love Clemikou... I love you so very much...thank you for this...and thank you for being there for me...~ I will repay for this, one way or another <3
Today, my father is doing better. Hes aware of whats going on, and hes recovering. Tomorrow I cant remember what he will go over but it shouldnt be a problem. Hes recovering...thats what matters.
Im not a man to ask for anything...but please give hope for him to make it out of this, even if the road seems smooth and straight, you dont know if there will be bumps and sharp turns there...so please give him your support if you could...and also understand I may not be talkative for the next few days. But please if you may, give him hope enough to make it out of this...thank you everyone for reading. Have a good day, and ill keep you posted.
