I ask your prayers for my father. He is eighty-eight years old and has been living alone since my mother died eight years ago. He has been in excellent health and condition for a man his age. He still drives. He is active in his church, the American Legion, and volunteers at the information desk of his county courthouse. He is a valued neighbor and member of his community. He went into the hospital last week for some bad back pain, an issue that pops up every couple of years. He also had a case of cellulitis, which was not responding terribly well to the antibiotics. They also found arterial fibrillation, which might be something new. He had not had any heart issues before.
My aunt has been feeding me some very alarming information about his condition (probably from my cousin, who is a nurse), and how even treatment for the heart issue can be life-threatening. I don't know if I want to believe her. I have to trust that the doctors will do the right thing, and that God will watch over their work.
I ask your prayers for the restoration of the health of a very vital man -- a good and kind man, a proud veteran of the Korean War era, and a patriot. I am thankful for having him for my fifty-nine years -- a lot longer than a lot of people have their parents. But I am scared, and I still need him.
Thank you.
