Hi Friends...
Well, I just got Mom tucked in bed and thought I'd give a little update on Dad. News flies quickly in our world because of so many blessed connections, but in case you're far away - here's what went down today.
Dad woke up feeling like his hip was "giving out on him". He went about his business as usual, but when he was signing the credit card bill for a car repair he noted that his signature was unusually little and felt funny. He had a couple of falls and very wisely agreed that he should get checked out. Fearful that he was having a TIA or something worse, we called 911 and got him to Riverview Hospital pronto.
Preliminary tests came out encouraging although his symptoms are calling for a little more attention. I talked to his nurse tonight and she said he was doing well (speech/eating/swallowing/cognition) - just a little right sided weakness.
Of course, your prayers are certainly appreciated. We have already been showered with visits from Mom/Dad's neighbors tonight. We feel so blessed to have friends and family - lots of prayers - and good healthcare. I'll keep you updated. That's all for now... Audi
