Please pray for my dad


Recommended Posts

So to make a long story short, we found out today that my dad has a brain tumor. He's at Saginaw St. Mary's hospital right now and it looks like he's going to have surgery tonight or tomorrow basically withing the next 24 hours. Please pray or your equivalent for him.

Needless to say I probably won't be around much, but I will try to keep ya'll posted.

Just heard from my mom. They can't get the MRI done tonight because he keeps fidgeting uncontrolably and they can't give him anymore muscle relaxers. My brother and I will be heading down to Saginaw in the morning. As of right now I'm drinking myself into oblivion so I can at least sleep.

I am so sorry.

Of course I'll pray for your father, and I'll pray for your strength to be there and supportive to him and your family. They need it too, as do you.

In the Jewish faith, we have a prayer for a refuah shleimah,

a complete recovery for all that are sick and ailing.

I just sang this for your father.

(the "funny language" is Hebrew with the English translation sung in the line immediately afterwards)

Mi Sheberakh

Mi sheberakh avoteinu mekor habrakha l’imoteinu

May the Source of strength

Who blessed the ones before us

Help us find the courage

To make our lives a blessing,

And let us say: Amen.

Mi sheberakh imoteinu mekor habrakha l’avoteinu

Bless those in need of healing With refuah shleima:

The renewal of body,

The renewal of spirit,

And let us say: Amen

(((HUGS)))

bean and I will be thinking of you and your father

Here is an update from TMG. She has asked me to post for her, as she cannot log into DGN from the hospital.

Her dad has gone in for his MRI right now. They had to fully sedate him, because the tremors were so bad.

The doctors will be operating immediately after, as the lesion is quite large. The tumor is located in between the frontal and parietal lobes of his brain.

This is all I know, so far. I will keep you all posted.

This hits so close to home. I will send all my thoughts and energy your Dad's way. My mother's was in a similar location and she is 1 year out and well today. I'll be pulling for the same for your dad. Hang in there, and if you need anything, even to just vent about it, I understand way better than I would like to, and am here for you. *hugs*

Update:

Marie's dad is in surgery, now. She has gone to the hospitality house to catch some sleep, as she says she can no longer stay awake.

Thank God, Shes been filling me in via text messages and I know shes hasnt slept for about 24 hours. Im crossing everything that crosses and praying to Jesus, Alla, Ganeesh, Budha and everyone else I can think of.

    • I am currently floored.   FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.   You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.   I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.   Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.   Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.   Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.
