FReeper Prayer request for my Father
16 JUN 2002 | gwmoore

Posted on 06/16/2002 9:39:11 AM PDT by gwmoore

I would appreciate the prayers of all FReepers and their families for my father, Mr. Charles R. Moore, who suffered a stroke or a reasonable facsimile therof, last Friday (this is a ball park figure, as I believe that the event happened Tuesday a week ago.

Dad is 85, and has been an active person his whole life, and was active until this happened. He is now 99% aphasic, and has hemiplegia on his right side. His physician who is handling the case is kind of the type of physician who, in my opinon, has not picked up a medical text nor followed the literature since He recieved his MD.

My Dad is being given a week of rehab,which, frankly, I feel is a little premature in coming. At that time, "decisions" (the MD's word) will have to be made as to what will happen next. I would like to make statements about the physician who is in charge of the case, but I don't feel like being the recipient of litigation regarding his qualifications. I will however say that my general opinion is that of things associated with ducks.

I would appreciate the prayers of FReepers and lurkers for an improvement, but, as we all know, such things are best left for our Savior and Great Physician.

Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts during his time of need.

Thanks also, for all the FReepers who are Keeping the Faith for Freedom and serving our Country at home and overseas.

May God bless you all
Greg Moore

Prayers are being lifted for you and your father. I am so sorry to hear the news. Because he was well up until the stroke, I am hoping and praying that this strength will help him through his ordeal.

Asking the heavenly Father to watch over, bless and keep you and your father safe. May He find it part of His divine plan to help your father to recovery. May He help you find the strength to carry the burden of your father's illness.

God Bless you both.

Prayers are on their way. Please do not leave your father alone in that place any more than necessary. They must be made aware, in no uncertain terms, that you and your family are vitally interested in your father's care. Question everything they do and watch everything. Make friends with the nurses, be nice to everyone, but be firm.

My mother had a serious problem, was in the ER, and the doctor had me outside her area in the second hour she was there talking about pulling the plug. I told him firmly she would WALK OUT OF THAT HOSPITAL! And she did. She also says she heard me telling the doctor, and it seemed to awake her from wherever she was. It's been at least five years and she is vital, active, and, well, my mom.

In any event, no matter what, your father, and you and your family have my fervent prayers. God bless you and yours. Remember, you cannot make a wrong decision.

Goodness, get a second opinion, rather than fume about a doctor you don't like.

Prayers coming your way.

Prayers being sent from our home for your dads restored health...

If you are not happy with your fathers doctor, then by all means, get another opinion...From my own personal experience, when my dad had cancer, and my son had cancer, I know that some doctors dont seem to know what they are doing, or they dont seem to be acting in the best interest of their patient...

I am not really an outspoken person, so I surprised even myself, when I find myself in really heated arguments with various doctors, when I did not agree with them concerning my dads or my sons treatment and course of illness..

You have an intuition about your dad, and let that guide you to seeking what kind of medical treatment you wish for him and what he wishes for himself...the doctor needs to do what you and your dad want...If he wont act accordingly, fire him, and get yourself another doctor....
