Poor Dad's not feeling too well

My Dad's been in the hospital for about a week.. breathing problems are the usual thing. Too much of the bad oxygen is getting trapped in his lungs, and not enough good oxygen is getting through. We went visiting on Valentine's day (debbie, karla, ants & me) We brought him some candy, a couple of valentine balloons & some flowers, and some yummy food that Mum made.

He's doing better..but he does have a downfall. He never tells anyone the truth about how he's doing. He says he's doing fine, will be out in a day or so - not to worry. Sandy even said it sounded like he didnt want visitors. So I told him that he better start telling people whats going on. God forbid something should happen to him, how terrible we would feel not being there.

Good news is they've moved him to another area & they will be showing him how to breath. In through your nose, out through your mouth.. guess the saying in with the good, out with the bad really does mean something. They will also teach him how he should breath when he walks up stairs. Hopefully this will help. The poor guy has been in/out of there quite a bit since Christmas. We keep teasing him that he's only going there & faking it so he can eat the roast beef sandwiches they make - he loves 'em : )
