PT Prayers for Andy's Dad

I just got off the phone with Kimmy (Ramanth) and she asked me to post this.

Andy's Dad is in the hospital undergoing surgery as we speak for a hole in his intestines. He had been complaining about abdominal pain this past weekend after they went out for dinner, so they tought it might be food poisoning. After they did an emergency CT scan, they found a hole in his intestines.

Kimmy asked me to ask all the PTers for their prayers for Andy's Dad's recovery.

She'll post more tomorrow from work.

Thoughts and prayers on their way from Ecorse, Kimmy.

Prayers on the way!

Any word yet?

Just got back from the hospital. It sounds like it was something that was building for a long time and finally ruptured. It was about a fist-sized hole in his intestine. They got him fixed up and they didn't have to put a colostomy bag in (which was the worst-case scenerio), which he was happy about. :)

He went in for surgery at about 9:30 last night (which was actually one month from the date of my emergency second lung surgery) and at 12:30 they rolled him up to his room, which is actually on the same floor I was at once I was out of the critcal care room. I even talked to one of the nurses on staff tonight that was there during my stay on that floor 3 weeks ago. Phred knows who she is. ;)

Anyway, we're gonna head back in the morning and find out more. The surgeon only told us the basics after his part of the procedure was done (about 11:00). They stabilize the patient back to 'more normal' before they bring them out of anesthesia and place them in a room.

He does have a nose tube in that goes all the way down into his stomach, which is probably quite irritating, but hopefully he won't feel it much tonight as he's still on some good painkillers.

Man, our Miller men aren't having that good a luck at the end of 2004 are we? Hopefully 2005 will be great.

Oh, Andy .... (((((HUGS)))) .... I was just wondering how YOU were coming along, and now THIS!!! My prayers will certainly be with your Dad, your family and you still as well!

Hang in there!
