Send some good vibes to my dad for me?

Hey all... asking the Caribbean ladies to send some T&P to my dad today.  He ended up in the ER last Friday for what turned out to be congestive heart failure.  He spent the better part of this last week in the hospital, and a heart cath revealed that he has some blockages and has had a heart attack in the past.  We've been begging him for years to take better care of himself, and this seems to have to woken him up a bit.  They released him on Wednesday, but mom just called and he's been doing pretty badly at home.  He couldn't even make it in to the hospital for a blood draw today, so mom did it herself and took it in... guess his kidney function isn't normal, he's still got a lot of excess fluid, his BP is still so erratic that he's using a walker.  I guess I didn't realize it was quite that bad still.

We're going down to Indiana tonight to see them, but sounds like he might end up back in the hospital today.  Send some good vibes his way?

    I'm so sorry! It sounds like he needs some more time in the hospital to adjust meds and get more familiar with his new normal.

    Thanks for all the kind words, ladies. Feeling a little down a out this. They hospitalized him again, and he seems to be bleeding internally from the heart cath site. Only two hours from the hospital, so hoping for some good news when we get there!
