Success after IF

My dad is dying

My dad lives with my older sister. Today, when my nephew got home from school he found my dad at the bottom of the stairs bleeding from the mouth. He called 911 and things aren't looking good. My sister spoke with the neurosurgeon who told her he cracked his skull and his brain is bleeding. He's in a coma and being kept on life support until I get there so I can say goodbye. He's only 65. I'm so so sad. My husband, Brady, and I packed up the car and are on our way to Pennsylvania. It's about a 9 hour drive.
