    Prayers for my Dad, please; Update p3 #41

    We had to all the rescue from the Y this morning.

    Dad is in ICU, with a diagnosis of severe UTI and sepsis. They had to put in a main line, he is getting fluids and 4 antibiotics.

    What a day! Left home about 9:30 to go to the Y; just left the hospital at 4:30 to come see to the dogs (Tasha wants her dinner at NOON so she was barking up a storm!), get them sorted, have a shower (I had been working out, been in my sweaty stuff all day ick) and will go back for the evening. Not allowed to stay overnight, they made that clear to me.

    Thanks in advance, everyone.

    Prayers for your dear Dad and you too, Sandie.
