Well apparently his ulcers must have been bleeding for a bit and this morning it all came out. As you can imagine this was very distressing for all of us. He even said to us that he was dying, and he thanked Cindy very much for all she has done for him.
Anyways, they are keeping him in the hospital for 48 hours to keep an eye on him, and they are increasing his ulcer medication.
Other than being a bit disappointed that he has to stay in the hospital for a few days he has taken this all in his stride. He is a very easy-going person and a very good patient. He is so pleasant and never complains much about anything. He did eat a hearty lunch today. Roast pork, gravy, some mashed potatoes and carrots.
Hopefully he will be able to come home on Monday. So that's the update. Thanks so much for your prayers and happy thoughts!
Have a great weekend everyone!
Sounds like he may be able to recover and that is good!! By the way, here in this country, at our age now at least, all our records with medicals we have to put our son or daughters down to be informed about all the docs find. Not sure if that happens there but at his age especially, your sister ought to be informed of EVERY single thing as after all, she is his caretaker.
