Life Support

...Yeah. My dad got moved to life support yesterday, Sunday, because his lungs are full of fluid and failing...
They think it got worse when they put a tube down his throat and he gagged on it and aspirated on his own vomit. /;
Then there's... all the other problems.

One of his doctors is so damn negative. She's saying there's no point in keeping him around on life support for more than five days, and she wants to unplug him and pull out all the tubes and everything on thursday. And I say. No. ;/ That's bullshit. Nonny needs at LEAST a week to get a chance to pull out of this. Because, it IS possible, damnit. He doesn't want to die. He even told me that... I know that he would want a chance.

 

But wow.

Things are pretty screwed up right now...

I'm still hoping this is a blessing in disguise of some sort, and that things arn't as horrifically crappy as they appear to be.

Pneumonia,
infection,
bad lungs,
bad kidneys,
cirrohsis of the liver,
low blood pressure,
low oxygen level,

even his blood sugar is low. /;

Wow. That's a lot of shit.

And it all needs to get. better.
damnit.

Because this is SO not the time for him to die.
