Healthma requested for my dad, who's had three TIA's (transient ischemic attacks--sort of like a mini-stroke that doesn't leave lasting damage but can be a precursor of worse things) in the past three days. He's in the hospital and will be at least through Monday. It's probably being caused by leftover damage from the heart attack he had back in 1991 (and I know that description doesn't make sense, but I heard this from my brother who heard it from my aunt, so I'm working through some filters here), but there's a tiny chance it could be a brain tumor. So he's being looked over by cardiologists, neurologists, and oncologists at this point.
I need to request some heavy duty ~ma for a very dear friend of mine. She has to fly out to FL to be with her family. Her dad is in the midst of chemo treatment and is now in the ICU and they are having problems stabilizing him. He may not make it through the next few days. I've spent the last few hours with her and feel horrible that I get on a plane out of town first thing in the morning. So yeah, ~ma for her, and for her Dad and her family.
My nephew Chris may be rotating stateside. His unit was moved to Kuwait on Thursday, so he's out of Bagdad. Requesting any residual low-level ~ma to be refreshed to return him (and others) home.
Cass wanted me to tell y'all that after her short visit the computer has effin crashed and she'll be back as soon as its better.
This is a slightly odd request, but could y'all send some -ma to an anonymous Buffista in need of support?
Much appreciated.
My friend that needed the ~ma just called to inform me that he father passed away tonight. She and her family were all together when it happened, for which she is very thankful.
My Dad had a heart attack this morning. My grandma evidentally forgot my number and where mom worked and so Mom got a messag when she got home and called me.
I talked to him -- he realized what was going on and called work then 911. But it was mild and he has a stent and that's all I know.
We still have to figure out how to tell my brother who's in NZ.
Lots and lots of all kinds of ~ma please.
Continued healthma requested for my dad. He hasn't had any further TIA's, but one of the many scans they've done revealed a spot on one of his lungs, so they did a surgical biopsy today. There was some lymphatic involvement as well, and the surgeon is almost certain it's cancer, but they won't know for a few days what kind. And it's possible, even likely, that it has nothing to do with the TIA's.
Dammit.
My sister Jeannie called. My nephew Chris is home from Iraq.
Nope, not a furlough. The good kind of home.
