Papa Tim wasn't feeling too well this morning, he's been struggling quite a bit lately and today looked pretty bad. Instead of going to work the decision was made to take him to the ER. Grateful we did, as he ended up having an emergency surgery for a blood clot.
Things went well and he was able to go home to recover. They say it should only take a few days, normally. However, with all his other complications in the same area - his recovery is expected to take longer. So no work or events for a while.
Let the struggles begin!
He's resting now, still in a fair amount of pain. Not moving too much. At least he has an appetite, just has to be careful. We all know how eating too much too soon can lead to throwing up, after a surgery.
My day started out with grandkids, and more grandkids. Then, Somewhere in the middle of all this, I had to return them all to mom's - so I could get down to the hospital. Put a wrench in everyone's plans.
And a bit of a scare too. He's had so many complications in the last year and a half. I really think he needs to retire and give himself a chance to heal and recover. He keeps pushing himself and ends up with more damage than before.
More Doctor appointments for July! - Heart doctor, Surgeon follow up and original surgery procedure, And the Urineologist? not sure I've spelled that one right...
He's going to be down quite a bit, hopefully there won't be any more additional instances like today to add to the mix.
Rest and Recovery....
