My sister called me last night. Apparently my father had another heart attack, a mild one, while partying it up in Laughlin, Nevada, but he says the doctors at the hospital are "taking good care" of him. I am still trying to get a hold of my Mom, she being the more forthcoming parental unit, but she must be out gambling away my inheritance with Grandma. Damn slot machines and their alluring cha-ching wiles... TURN ON YOUR FREAKING CELL PHONE, MOM!
Worried, much? Me? Nah.
Sheesh.
(ETA: Apparently, he is in SURGERY today! At this moment! At a hospital! In an operating room! Somewhere in AZ! And still no call from my mommy! Yikes. Well, hello there, gastrointestinal distress... where YOU been?)
(E again TA: Yay! He's out of surgery, got a brand spankin' new stint in there, and he's doing just fine. Thank God. And thank YOU guys for all your good vibes/prayers. I know my daddy felt them; he said as much. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you...)

That's very scary! I'm sorry that he is so far away from you- that must make it worse. Hang in there - remember to breathe. I hope everything is okay.

I live in fear of that call...anything bad happening to my Dad. THEN to not have Mom calling me...um...not good, not good at all.
I'm so relieved to see that Father's Day is still on. Sorry I didn't get in here sooner Cat, but sooooo glad to hear that it's all good now.- » 6/17/2005 1:17 PM
