2.19.09.."Daddy-O"..

This is the image my Dad gets to look at, from his hospital bed...my sweet lil' niece, Brianna drew this for him, and he just loves it..he was even considering buying a new dry erase board and replacing boards with the hospital..just so he could take this image home with him...ahhhhh......so the lil scrapper I am. I just whipped out my handy-dandy camera a took a pix for him. Love you Dad...

But yes, my sweet Daddy is in the hosp. it was real frustrating because he phone didn't work and I couldn't call and talk to him at all..his cell phone was not fully charged..I guess when your heading to the E-room that's the last thing from your mind..Wait! I need my charger..and my right shoe..oh and my vase from the living room..oh and I bet it's not great food, can you pack me a cooler of food?.....

But I finally got to visit my Dad yesterday..I guess according to his other visitors, he looks better than he did when he was admitted....geez that scares me....

From the hospital he goes to a rehabilitation center to get his strength back, he's still extremely weak...

He still had his sense of humor! I briefly spoke with the nurse who seemed to know "of him" and she said he kept her on her toes and he was a funny man..that's my dad...

But he has pneumonia...he was coughing so bad. He only has 30% use of his lungs. And he has emphysema....But he's a tough cookie!

I love you dearly Dad and you still owe me a fishing trip with my pink fishing pole.
So you have to get better.
