Bedside manner..

Well my brother is a pastor. I am beginning to question his bedside manner.
(I get to pick on him he’s my brother after all!)

So he calls me and leaves a message on my phone.
“Hi, it’s me.
Happy Birthday, Happy Fourth of July (I think he was stalling to see if I would pick up)
Uh.. Dad went to the hospital last night, he has a blockage in his colon and they think it might be cancerous.”

See what I mean!

Well, Dad is at the hospital. Originally they were going to take a look at what was in there on Tuesday and then surgery on Wednesday. But this morning the other doctor said why wait.
So he was supposed to go into surgery today. They are in California so they are 3 hours behind us.
Last I knew I was talking to Dad while he was getting blood drawn and signing his colon away.

Waiting for the next call.

I’ll fill in the knitting successes of the weekend later! The battery charger for the camera was found and much knitting was done at the races and the trip there and back.

Later!

Dad Update

Dad had the surgery. They took our about 1/3 of his colon and the growth. It is pretty much certain that is it cancer. The rest of his colon looked clear! But they did some biposy for testing. He is doing well, resting and Mom is being entertained by her four west coast grand children.
