My dad has been taken to the hospital

Don't know for sure if its corona but I expect he will be tested now but I'm very worried, he has heart health problems so isn't healthy to begin with but now his oxygen sat levels are low so they've taken him in.

Just need a hand hold I suppose. I have to find the positives here, at least its before the peak so there are beds.

Glad your dad is well Natsku!

Thank you :)

I'm so pleased Natsku. Any word on when he will be able to go home?

Natsku · 20/05/2020 20:32

No word yet. Someone needs to come out and look at the house as far as my mum understands it, to see if it will be ok for him or if he'll need to go to some kind of rehabilitation place after the hospital instead. Hopefully it'll be ok as they have a downstairs loo and the dining room can be turned into a bedroom so he won't have to deal with stairs.

It's good that he won't have stairs to deal with. It should make things easier for your mum too.

You must be so relieved Flowers

Natsku · 21/05/2020 09:28

Very relieved!

Glad to hear he's getting better and better. Hope he gets home soon

Natsku · 27/05/2020 21:24

He will hopefully be going home on Friday or Saturday, just in time for his birthday on Sunday!

He's been walking without a frame so he's getting stronger.

This is a lovely update. I posted on your thread at the beginning but for some reason it disappeared. I'm glad he is on the right side of the tracks.

Natsku · 27/05/2020 21:32

Thank you, I'm so happy he'll be home with my mum soon

Oh, that's so good to hear Natsku!

That's fantastic, Natsku, you've had an awful time, it's great for your mum that it looks like there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Gives us all hope Flowers

He is home! The neighbourhood all turned out to clap and cheer when he got home which is just so lovely of them. And he's already watching tv, trying to catch up on many weeks of his recorded programmes!

Only just caught up and this made my eyes watery!! How lovely of your neighbours.

So pleased he's home OP. What an amazing recovery.

Hooray! When did you first post, way back in March? What a journey.
