Guest guest Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 I went to see him last weekend. He is off the ventilator & out of ICU. But he's in bad shape still. He's so weak he can't do anything for himself. Has to depend on someone to feed him. Has problems holding a cup to get something to drink. He can't get up out of bed by himself. They put the catheter back in because he was having accidents. He is still having a lot of breathing problems & his bowels still aren't back to " normal " . My brother is there thru Friday & then I'll be going down. I'm not sure what's going to happen from here. He is just so miserable. I could see it in his eyes. I cry every time I think about it. He's so helpless. :-( W 380/270/160 O. wrote: > Thanks !!! How is your Dad? Anything new? > > Hugs!! > > > Quote
