    What a fine-looking gentleman! Prayers that at least some of the damage can be reversed and he will regain some health and strength.
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Yes - I agree - and very spry looking for a man his age.

    So sorry for all you're going through -- you and your dad will be in my prayers . Hopefully things will take a turn for the better

    I agree, your dad doesn't look 90 at all, looking spry and healthy, what a shame things like this have to happen.

    I'm so sorry to hear of your Dad's health problems. He looks the picture of health in those photos.
    I hope they can get him stableized and comfortable now. Prayers for him & for all of your family.

    Lut, how painful this must be for you and your family. And how horrible for your father to endure.

    I will offer candle prayers for you.

    Positive thoughts being sent your way. So sorry to read about this.

    Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

    Your prayers seem to be succesful!!!!
    Today we entered dad's room and walked straight to his bed; But it was EMPTY....
    At first I thought "oh no, he hasn't passed away??"; but then I looked to the table in the back of the room, and there he was!! Sitting on a normal chair, reading his newspaper!!!
    He was bent over a bit, but that's to prevent him loosing his balance!!
    I was soooooooooo happy to find him like that !!!!

    But that wasn't all!!
    He asked us if we would like to go the restaurant on the ground floor to have a drink or a snack!
    I thought he would ask a wheelchair to go there, but then he pointed at a rollator which was parked in a corner.
    Like this:
    Then he got on his feet, and off we went!! Nearly 20 meter to the elevator, then into the restaurant to a vacant table.
    We got us all a coffee; he asked for a cornetto too (ice-cream!)
    After this we walked all the way back to his room!
    Of course he was tired then an went into his bed right away;
    But hey, I was and am soooo happy!!
    I told him several times how proud and happy I was, and he gave a a smile from ear to ear!!!
    He is getting his strenght back, that's for sure!!
