Glad Tidings

I am glad to say that the cardiologist told us that although there was an indication that my father's arteries had blockage, they were considered 'mild to moderate', not 'severe'. So there was no need for him to undergo any invasive procedures.

My father does not want to go through another operation after the last three he had, so it was great news for all of us. :)

The fact that the cardiologist wanted to meet us at 7.30am at the hospital was worrying for us. Yet none of us dared to postpone the conference as we were worried that it could be urgent, since she requested to meet us at such an unearthly hour. But we were just glad that nothing awful happened.

My father needs to be able to sit on a chair for at least 6 hours, and walk and relieve himself on his own before he can be discharged. None of us would tell him that as the longest that he could sit on a chair was 2.5 hours. We don't want him to exert himself just to hit the 6 hours.

He has been in the hospital for 18 days.

Pray for my father, won't you?
