violachicMy dad is doing okay. He ended up with a quintuple bypass, but the doctor said the last two were "just in case", and so they don't risk having to go back in later. I'm not entirely sure what that means, but whatever, if it saves him another surgery down the line, that's great.
I was at the hospital this morning, and they had him sitting up in the recliner, he was awake, and getting yelled at by the nurses for talking too much. He's in good spirits, and I think he's going to bounce back just fine. He'll be in ICU for a couple days, and hopefully by Friday he'll be in a regular room, and hopefully he'll he able to go home Sunday or Monday.
They were trying to get him to go to a nursing facility for a couple weeks, since he lives alone, but he's pretty adamant he doesn't want that, so my brother and I will be trying to devise a way to get someone with him pretty constantly next week. At the very least, someone needs to be there to wrangle the dogs, which isn't easy, because Woody is really wary of most people. So I don't know what's going to happen, but we're going to wait till the weekend to figure it out.
I'm at work today, and I'm really tired. I think I will be in bed very early tonight. I'll be with Habibi all day tomorrow, and then off on Friday, so I'm thinking of going out there Friday to Saturday. I have commandeered his Explorer to make the trips between the city and the suburbs easier.
I think that's the info that needs to be passed on. I'm going to go back to watching Emma, and listening for a waking baby.
