Guest guest Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I can not tell you how hard the last month has been on me, my father and my family. I know that I don't keep up on these post as often as I should. However, I have great comfort knowing that when I need you all, you are right here at the touch of my fingers. I have often thought my Dad was going to pull through, that he was going to be ok. He was transferred to ICU again last night making this the third time in thirty days. He is having full blown hallucinations, the nurse said that Hepatic encephalopathy is bad. I was confused at first, his ammonia levels are only 16. I guess he has other toxins building up in his brain. He is tied to the bed and when I was leaving they were inserting a feeding tube in his nose. I can't seem to come to grip with my dad, losing his mind... I am sad, scared and feeling all alone. My heart goes out to those who live with this illness and the people who care for the ill. Thank you and Hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
