KayAnn - how hard it must be for you watching a much loved Dad suffer. As everyone else has mentioned docs., can do such good work with diet - boring yes - but it works .

I'm sending hugs from me and the cats {{{{{{{{xxx}}}}}} all the way over to the USA just for you and your family. Be a brave girl 'cos it's time like these that Mums and Dads need lots of love from their daughters xxxxx

KayAnn, I am sorry that your father is going through some tough times. I am certain that it must be very difficult on you and the members of your family. The family's TLC will ease his pain.

Please know that he is my thoughts. Update us on his progress!

Kay Ann:
Your dad, you and your family will be in my prayers and thoughts. Ulcers can be treated very well these days. With medication and diet, have faith that. he'll be well soon

KayAnn, so sorry to hear about your father's ills. I have ulcers too although not as severe as your father's. My brother, who is a doctor, said that Pepto-Bismol actually will neutralize the bacteria that cause the ulcer and may provide temporary relief when the pain is really bad. Needless to say, I take a bottle with me everywhere I go. I'm sure the doctors your father is seeing will give him loads of info on treatment and diet.
I hope he gets well soon.. Tell him we're all thnking of him, maybe show him some of the funnier posts here to cheer him up! We can be a funny crew at times....Or better yet, have Simba spend some time with him....

Dear KayAnn,
I'm sorry your dad's going through all of this stuff. Hang in there, and help him stick with the recommended diet. It's important! And give that beautiful dog of yours a super hug from all of us.
Much love from Cindy, Stump, and Emmett

Thank you all for your comments and thoughts. My dad is now allowed to eat things such as noodles, bananas, rice, and stuff like that... Hes doing much better... his back is still really bad and has been that way for almost a year... we may be able to make it to Michigan this summer. He said he may take some kind of injections that sooth the pain , we go on the trip, and when we get back he goes into surgery.. im not sure yet but ill keep you all updated.. Simba has helped our family through this... like my dad said... Simba brings so much joy into our family.

I'm so glad to hear your Dad is feeling better in the ulcer dept.! I've had a bleeding ulcer myself, and I know the discomfort he is feeling. Make sure he sticks to his diet!!! And KayAnn, I think finally having the back surgery will give him a lot of relief in that dept. Of course, I'm not surprised that sweet Simba has given him comfort during this time. Dogs have such an amazing talent for easing our pain, emotional and physical! Prayers continue for your Dad and your family.

I'm so glad your Dad's feeling better too. I've not had an ulcer but can relate to his back pain. I have arthritis in my lower back and some days are really awful. I'm glad sweet Simba helps take his mind off his pain. Animals are angels in fur coats I think! Please give Simba angel a hug from me.
